I've been itching to get away from SOCAL for the past couple of months. My initial plan was head towards the Eastern Sierras and the wife wanted to visit the Tahoe area. After reading a couple of blogs and since school just got out I decided to revisit the Great Basin region of Nevada and avoid the "masses" in the Sierras. The weather happened to be mild with a low pressure just north of Nevada.
Kane Springs Road off of NV 93 was a great start to wide open spaces and not many people.
Lots of side roads with springs and campsites. The north end of Kane Valley ends up in a former settlement of Elgin. www.ghosttowns.com/states/nv/elgin.html
The Elgin Schoolhouse ( http://parks.nv.gov/parks/elgin-schoolhouse) is worth a stop.
