Scott,
There are some nice areas along 50, and it is impressive the way the sections of mountains seem to spring up from the desert. I was just killing time one day, and drove east out of Carson City on a country road, and just outside of the city limits, I rounded a crop of almost vertical rock, and there was the prettiest valley you have ever seen, with green pastures, cattle, and horses, with more mountains as a back drop.
The area I mentioned it to the west of 395, just north of Carson City. I forget the name of the area, but there are fine homes in the shadow of the Sierras, tall pines, and on lots of what looked like 5 to 10 acres.
On the Paiute reservation,just north of Fallon, they run wild horses. If you can wangle an invite, they are beautiful free animals to see charging across the desert. I would not suggest that a white man go poking around there without an invitation. I met a very old Washoe woman at a powow, and she introduced me to some Paiutes, and they let me come visit, up close to Pyramid Lake.
The symbol is as close as I can get with the characters on the keyboard, to a charging buffalo. If you will note, not everyone, like liberals, get one on my responses.;^))))
