The Loneliest Road In America
It has been called "The Loneliest Road in America". Hwy 50 runs right across the middle of Nevada as you can see on the map below. Before the Interstate Highway System roads like Hwy 50 and Route 66 were the main roads around America. As you can see we will be saving a fair number of miles compared to going north on I 15 to Salt Lake City and then west on I 80. We also hope to enjoy less traffic and some interesting places like Ely, NV (#3 on the map) where we will spend one night to break up the trip. We'll spend another night just north of Reno and then make our way north through central California and central Oregon.
