We are off on the Loneliest Road in America, US#50 from Fernley to Ely, Nevada.
Got away at 8:21 and arrived in Ely at 4:20pm, not bad for stops and hundreds of photos. The weather as OK, we had snow falling on us as we neared Ruth, NV, which is the largest copper mines and one big hole in the ground, just outside of Ely.
In every town you pass you need to get your US50 passport stamped, upon completion of the 5 stamps (BTW Baker is the last point), you get a certificate from the Governor of Nevada that you survived US50. It was a very COLD trip those 290miles, never got above 40F the whole time.
The key is to gas up in every town you come too.
