An adventure to Nelson, NV



Below was our view of Nelson Landing  from the parking area - it was about a 1/2 mile walk down to the water and it was 90 ish degrees and we had been warned several miles back that this is "snake season" and the green ones are very aggressive?!?  Being that I am not a big fan of snakes of any color, we opted to do our viewing from a gravel parking area
This is a view of Lake Mohave from the end of the road we were on.  We did see five other vehicles on our way out here but other than that this area is deserted - paved road but certainly not well traveled.  The link above is a brief description of the town of Nelson which is the only town on the way out here - after you leave route 95 - a total of 20 or so miles .. more beautiful open space for sure - we have seen so much of it and I am quite certain there is lots more to be seen
Also, in a previous mail I had mentioned the dust storms we encountered on the way to Boulder City - this is the same area we saw them last week and there were more today.  Thankfully, Rick was better at taking pictures of them than I was last week ... 
So today was a good adventure.
