Exploring NV means driving long straight empty roads with big skies and always a mountain range in the distance.
Have a peaceful day

Thank you. I took it a few years ago so don't remember for sure but I think that it was shot with film. Developed and scanned. I usually did some touch ups but mostly just removing dust marks.

Chip @chipgr.bsky.social · 7d

So agree.

Aspen are such beautiful trees, especially in the fall. Thanks for sharing

Hiking in the Columbia Gorge always starts with a lot of up but the views are worth the effort.
Have a great day.

Great place for morning tea and to witness the arrival of the day.
Despite all the chaos, nature calms my mind.

I love bristlecones! Great Basin is a magical place.

Chip @chipgr.bsky.social · 11d

So many places, Great Basin NP is one of my favs, as is hwy 50 and 395 down the east side of the Sierras. Also loved the Ruby Mtn's in the NE corner. The list goes on. Exploring some of the smaller roads thru the desert always offers nice surprises. Grew up in Reno, so enjoy returning there.

Nevada is a surprisingly beautiful state. Can't wait to return.

For those who think that Nevada is all desert, I present Great Basin NP. Definitely one of my favorite NPs.
Hope that everyone has a wonderful fall day
