McDermitt - 2d leg





Looks like with the amount of time it takes to get down there we may just take a week off and see if we can cover the eastern third of the state. Really enjoyed the folks in McDermitt, about 300 people, mostly from the tribe, live in the area. Everyone was very friendly, we felt comfortable, and the food at the casino was great. Here's a link to interesting information on the indian reservation:

Posted the snowy picture looking west along the route we followed the first day from near our stat point. The other two pics are from the end point of the second day; one looking at the rock wall we stopped at and the other looking back across the valley east towards McDermitt. Still looking for a driver from the area to drop us off and pick us up in order to get that first segment from 35 to 20 miles east of town next time down.
