Tyler Mattson Posted December 11, 2021 Report Share Posted December 11, 2021 A little late to the trigger but my local buddies and I did a friend's giving run up to the black rock desert in northern nevada. We started up Friday evening and ran out to the hot springs were it was a balmy 19 degrees out so getting in the hot spring was lovely getting out was an exercise in shivering speed. The next morning we made our way through high rock canyon where we ran into some series rover super stars doing a photo shoot. Turns out it was Ike Goss and his buddies and once home Greg proceeded to tell me the guy doing the photos was Nick Dimbleby who I guess does alot of rover and car photography and is the guy who just did the camel trophy book. After spending the day running through the canyon and stopping at all the fun sights we made our way to Steven's camp which is a blm managed cabin that is free to the public we set up camp and blew some holes in old beer cans then proceeded to cook a feast. The next morning we ate a filling breakfast then explored massacre ranch then the town of vya and on our way back down we stopped at the petrified forest for some rocks I can stub my toe on later. In the end it was a good way to waste a weekend, it's a bit of a drive for everyone in Northern California but if there's ever any interest in exploring up there I'd be happy to lead a group around. No promises on a fun trip but a memorable one is an always. Mr.BlueSky, Jethro and DHappel 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
