Adventure Location - Desert

Short location for an encounter, ambush or distraction. Options for a possible interesting extra.
The desert conjures images of sun-blasted wastes, stark canyons and sandy ridges. Encounters may take place at a well-guarded oasis, a lonely mesa, among half buried ruins or in the bed of a dried up river.
