All the national forest lands in Nevada are managed jointly even though the sections are widely separated and spread across the state in long fingers following mountain ranges. In keeping with our plan to spend much of the summer in rural Nevada we moved to a section closer to Ely. It’s similar to our last boondocking spot with a fairly flat sagebrush valley on the edge of a pinion pine and juniper forest.
There are three or four boondocking sites in the valley. They’re old jeep and ATV trails have been closed off with large rocks. Most are sloped and require leveling. Our spot is the largest and most level. We took several walks/rolls into the forest and found some more large and fairly level sites under the trees.
The road is in very good condition and should be fine for large RVs however there aren’t any good spots to turn around. That might be a problem if you’re towing and can not back up into a site to turn around.

What's the elevation there? Looks like a nice spot to park! Hope it's cool enough. How close are you to Ely?
ReplyDeleteAbout 7,000 feet so great temperatures. It's about six miles to Ely
