Off-road to Riley's & Geer Camps, Mojave National Preserve, California
Riley's Camp and Geer Camp are nestled in the foothills of the Ivanpah Mountains in Mojave National Preserve. They have buildings, some being preserved and restored.
Riley was a World War I veteran who came to the Mojave desert in the 1920s. He put his explosive skills to work mining the Ivanpah Mountains. By the time he died, he had placed 56 claims. Bembry erected the Mojave Cross in 1934. He was well known throughout the area, and over 100 people attended his funeral in 1984.
Riley’s Camp consists of his home, an assay office and a powder magazine for dynamite.
