FR 117A in Eager

I turned off 117 onto 117A and then into the grass in a wide open area. There are several wide open areas with great views. The cows from a nearby farm roam and graze through the BLM land day and night, which was interesting! They were very curious about me. It was so quiet and peaceful but this whole area seems popular. I had to drive 4-5 miles from highway 260 to find a spot.
Caution about weather- if it storms or rains the road gets muddy and puddles form. I got stuck in the mud the morning after a storm but managed to escape thankfully. Check the weather!
