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!

Frozen Stream on Frozen Playa, Nevada, 21-February-2021
A few small streams empty into the Black Rock Desert playa during the winter months. This stream was frozen solid, as was the ground itself. That helped with walking, but beware...within an hour or two, this all turned into a sea of mud, as the sun warmed it up.
