Black Rock Desert, Nevada
The Black Rock Desert, in northwestern Nevada, is a remote and starkly beautiful landscape. It features a dry lake (playa) that's over 23 miles long...it was part of the California Trail back in the 1800's, and it was a difficult crossing, from one water hole to the next. Today, it's a place to play and explore...and photograph!

Waiting for first light, Granite Range, Nevada, 18-February-2021
In the Black Rock Desert, the wind blows nearly all the time...it can wear you down. But for five minutes this morning the wind stopped, and the entire landscape was as still and as calm as any I have ever experienced. No wind noise, no cars, no planes or trains, no coyotes, no birds. In this vast space, you could hear a pin drop. Truly a magical moment, in this stark and remote landscape. #HighWildPlaces #Nevada #BlackRockDesert
