Lara, I understood that the party went through the El Paso's via Red Rock Canyon, not Last Chance.
From there came the two longest stretches without water -- first, to Willow Springs area near present day Rosemond, then on to Barrel Springs, near Palmdale.
From there, yes, I understand that they did descend Solidad Canyon to San Fernando.
