Dang - another corner of Nevada to explore! Thanks for the great trip report and the Holy Toad story is wonderful!

We're coming up with a plan for retirement income leading pilgrimages to the Holy Land where it all began.

Great report, thank you! Hitting the Emigrant Trails is on my short list when we get back out there.

It's a wonderful remote area. We've only started to scratch the surface. Our friend The Sagebrush Reconnoiterer, since he saw we were out that way, has been sending us information on new spots to find. Our "to do" list is growing too.

Here's hoping you'll put the "Stolpa Rescue Site" on your to-do list.

Thanks for another fine TR!

Smoke, thanks for the nice comment! If it wasn't for the construction on 447, we may have gone smack dab into your namesake territory.

After a bit more research on a couple of things I want to find, we'll be back.

Foy, several years back Julie and I drove across 8A and never gave the Stolpas a thought. Perhaps, someday, I should tell the story of a somewhat - much more funny - similar incident were involved in here during a major Sierra storm. Darwin sure has a lot of near misses.

Yes, we know all the words to the "Gilligan's Island" theme song. We sang it a lot at times.
