Rough road - Amazing scenery

The paved portion of the road is really rough. But after spending the day on the dirt portion, it felt quite luxurious. I saw a few Subarus out there. High clearance would be good and 4x4 helpful. Mostly rocky and slow going for me...maybe need softer shocks.

I arrived a the townsite late so that is where I stayed because I could not make it back to Whitney Pocket. There were 2 others camped there. 

Sight seeing was cut short because of the wind. Getting out of the vehicle was always work. Will have to come back when the conditions are better.
