Sunday, October 17: A hot spring in Nevada to another Hot spring Nevada
22 degrees upon wake up this morning…knew it was cold the heater was running often. Waited for first light and wiggled our way out of the rutty part. Driving separately (me in jeep and david in motorhome) made quick work of the washboard roads…about 12-15 minutes versus a good hour? Separately we could glide over the roads. A stop in Elko Walmart for a few things and gas so that WHEN the weather gets cold tonight we have heat options (like turn on engine). We settled into our spot at the nameless hotspring and had a nice soak. Will clean the tub tomorrow…brought a brush. WINDY as heck here and blowing sand. Walks with dog because she needs exercise.
After dinner we did a jeep ride to see what we saw. On the route coming back in hit thick (may 12” or more) of SOFT dirt/moondust. When the wind was coming from behind us and we hit a deep spot, poof, no visuals out front of jeep. Jeep made it through all of it even with our stock street tires (that is an upgrade for the future). Wind died down and all was good.
