No or little cell signal- Download offline maps to search coordinates. When you book, please message me for directions.
Pack out *all* trash and waste.
The land is ancient and untouched - please don’t disturb any landscape features or plants, including rocks.
4x4 or high clearance vehicle generally not needed on the road to Moonwalker Outpost. If it’s light rain, it is still accessible. Property boundaries are marked with small solar lights, please be respectful of the neighboring properties by admiring them from afar. Please keep your vehicle in the designated parking/driving area, tire tracks will ruin the desert floor and the vibe.
Inquire about using the property for media or other creative endeavors. I hope you fall in love with this unique landscape, the solitude, and the perfect quiet, like I have. -Matt
