Apr 14, 2009 - Great Basin National Park, NV

Today's big decision was to choose between potentially meeting our end by being attacked by a mountain lion, but at least knowing we went out while doing something we loved - or, for sure living longer but potentially ending up in a nursing home.Today's big decision was to choose between potentially meeting our end by being attacked by a mountain lion, but at least knowing we went out while doing something we loved - or, for sure living longer but potentially ending up in a nursing home....

Oct 21, 2007 - Moab,UT To Great Basin N.P., NV

October 21, 2007: 347 miles, Moab, UT, To Great Basin National Park, Nevada. Found the skeleton of a coyote (?) and, hidden in a bush, 5 cans of unopened Budweiser beer! All were faded and swollen from a lot of sun exposure! Startled a huge owl that in turn startled me! Back on the road to the turn off for Baker, Nevada, where the turn off is to Great Basin National Park (Great Basin means none of the water accumulated there flows into an ocean, it is either absorbed or evaporates. ... Never saw one single other person in the park, neither at the closed Visitors Center or while driving miles in the park! We were the only ones at the 7,300 feet elevation Baker Creek Campground! Had our pick of any of the 34 camp sites. ... We couldn't find the camp site we had in the early 90's when we were last here.October 21, 2007: 347 miles, Moab, UT, To Great Basin National Park, Nevada.

Aug 19, 2007 - Great Basin National Park

Great Basin National Park is very remote, and much more beautiful than my pictures show it to be. Baker, NV is not a place to get anything repaired so I packed up and headed west toward Carson City where I'm now located at a full hookup campground. ... Fortunately the refrigerator works fine on AC power.Great Basin National Park is very remote, and much more beautiful than my pictures show it to be.
