On Wednesday, we took a trip 15 miles northeast into the Playa to the hot spring at Black Rock Point. Then, after a long bumpy ride on a jeep trail (that I had discovered in my travels the previous summer) to the top of a cliff 1300 ft. above the playa, we enjoyed the panoramic view looking back toward Black Rock City. We were just barely able to establish GMRS radio contact with someone all the way back in Black Rock City.
