Leave Saturday Morning April 9th 2016 at 9:00 am from Gerlach.


I will TANKUP... in Fernley  and top off in Gerlach.
I show 78 miles from Fernely NV to Gerlach NV.... 1.5 hours as the Google flies......


The trip  out to the black rock desert and sights should be around 125 miles(loop) like CivicJoe said.

If I leave here(Fernely NV) at 6:30 am Saturday morning then I can make a 8am breakfast in Gerlach
9 am departure time from Gerlach NV( and gas up ).
I'm thinking that I have stayed in Fernely before and have made a reservation  here:

 Super 8 Fernley
1350 W. Newlands Dr, Fernley, NV โ€Ž
(775) 575-5555 โ€Ž ยท

Beds around 62-70 bucks for the night.

He didn't lead last year's run either, it didn't help speed up the group at all.
