Slabs Amenities

Slabs residents come from all over, some fleeing high rent or high stress, others seeking adventure. They have in common the gumption to get mobile, and to come to this lonely, remote desert. Like people everywhere, however, they have the urge to connect, create, and contribute. Here are a few of their creations.

Here's a brush arbor reading room.


Ron has built a memorial to Peggy, who died 5 years ago.

Homemade tombstones tell heartfelt stories.
