      I've seemed to miss it for decades too. It's out of the way from nearly everywhere. Bit it's a really neat area worth more exploration.

    great video - enjoyed your Alaska videos too. I was at Burning Man this year - still haven't gotten everything clean. Very cool going there when no one else is there.

      Hi Craig, Thanks, I bet it was super interesting at Burning Man. I saw pictures and it was a very different experience we had in the same place. Thats really neat.

    We did black rock a few years ago. Great trip we just went too early. Snow believe it or not and nesting raptors closed down the canyon. Great video. Cheers to van life

      Thank's. Will you go back? I sure will. But it's good to know to not go just anytime and to make sure it's open and accessible.

    • @brianandmarisha409

      we will for sure. We really want to drive through the canyon portion and actually finish the route. Yah, who knew snow would stop us.... @@Famagogo

    Incredibly dusty is an understatement. I've been there three times but I love the place.🥰

      Dusty for sure. I just did a deep cleaning of the van and removed so much dirt and dust. I think I'm going to get better MPG now. Happy Holidays!

      I've felt the same way too. But it is a neat area!

    From a friend of mine who traveled there to provide EMT services for Burning Man : Check out the hot springs of the playa. Frog pond is one of them. By the railroad tracks on the east side of the playa. The playa is a. Special kind of beauty. Avoid dark playa as it has high water content and you may not get out even with 4wd .

      Thanks, Great tips. I'll check out Frog Pond next visit.
