Nights in the desert are cold. The temperature immediately drops and the air feels clean and still. The sky is expansive and is lit up with thousands and thousands of stars. On very dark nights, planets can be seen and on bright nights, the moon sits in the sky like a spotlight. A train can be heard off in the distance shouting its horn into the night as it trudges along. The Desert Nights cowl is based on the nights on the reservation. Having your nearest neighbor at least 5 miles away creates a real sense of distance in the open wilderness. I’ve never felt more at peace than when I’m home watching the moon rise over the red cliffs that sit East of my family’s home.
