I start today's hike by climbing up a hill and looking down at my tent in the little valley at the end of Castle Peaks Road

After seven miles, I arrive at the stop sign: I arrive at Searchlight, Nevada, population 576
Oh, look, a pedestrian! I haven't spoken to anybody since leaving Nipton two days ago. I ride down Hwy 95 through the middle of town to see what's here. This only takes a few minutes.
