Ridgecrest Guide
- Share via
The unassuming “Ridgecrest Area Visitor’s Guide,” printed in black and white on newsprint, is actually quite useful, especially if you’re a “desert rat” headed for the California town northeast of Bakersfield. It proposes a seven-day itinerary, with thumbnails of highlights such as the China Lake Weapons Museum and Death Valley. It also lists lodgings, restaurants and annual events. Tel.
