"It's totally empty. There are no points of interest. We don't recommend it." So advised AAA in 1981, urging Life magazine to print a disclaimer: "Motorists should not drive there unless they are confident of their survival skills."US Hwy 50 bisects Nevada, dividing the state into two large lateral zones as it runs from Ely and Baker in the extreme east to Carson City in the west. What a road! Perhaps this summer I will drive it.
No reason for this post. I just finished a book on Nevada's highways and enjoyed learning that even among the lonely, there is a loneliest.

That's strange. I've just (one hour ago) selected a picture of this very road to accompany the Nevada destination guide on the new website. I think it's really beautiful. Max.
