Thurs, Oct 21: A hot spring in Nevada to Fallon to Sportsman’s Beach at Walker Lake, NV
Decided to leave today and get some things done in Fallon…including a second try at Amazon Hub pick up…the first one was never resolved so I have to get refund on that one and no one ever called me back (the second time it was supposed to be within in hour). Fallon provided us with gasoline, dump/no fresh water at the golden gate (with jeep gas purchase), propane at Big R, Walmart shopping $214!!!
Amazon hub pick up/FINALLY SUCCESSFUL. I spent less than a minute in the store to grab the package. First Amazon hub pick up automatically put it up for refund…it was NEVER coming back to ELY.
After Fallon we headed to Walker Lake and checked out the following three BLM campgrounds: 20 mile beach, Tamarisk, and Sportsman’s beach. It “seemed” the first two were free as there were no fee boxes? The last one was the one we selected BECAUSE it had specific camp sites and a picnic table (for easier grilling for the grill guy). So three nights of Sportsman’s Beach Campground cost us $9 with the OLD GUY PASS. We had the last site/31. Yes, they are near the road but the views are pretty awesome…much warmer here…changed into shorts as too hot otherwise. The two other BLM campgrounds looked like it was just a free for all in camping and we questioned whether the OTV/OHV, ATV, etc crowd would come in tomorrow? This worked better for us! Our research told us that there was some soft sand at the first two and we did not wish to get stuck.
Some short walking.
