One night the only ones here!

We had a wonderful quiet here on the BLM land. We were searching for a place to camp and it was particularly late at night. We were struggling to find a place and stumbled upon this one. It quiet small and sporadic camps or pull offs to camp on. There used to be more spots but apparently part of the road got closed. Also you now need to use a different entrance that was a bit confusing for our GPS. We woke up in the morning and were surprised at how freaking beautiful it was. At night we couldn't tell at all!

Cheers!
