•Discovering old mines and relics, including abandoned structures and vehicles (24:37, 25:54), particularly in an area called Mexican Hat (19:29).

•Experiencing the "magical" scenery of the desert, which the creator described as one of the best trips of his life, filled with memory-making experiences (32:46).
