Great Basin National Park, Baker, Nevada

Discover Your Nevada

Here’s the thing: The more Nevada you know, the more Nevadan you are.

When’s the last time you hit the highway on a little only-in-Nevada adventure? One where memories include gazing up at some of the brightest stars in the darkest skies. Exploring ghost towns teeming with Silver State stories (and maybe an apparition of two… if you’re lucky). Clinking Basque Picon Punch over tasty grub and tall tales. Seeking solitude and solace miles from the crowds. And beyond. Are you ready to get on the road and truly Discover Your Nevada? Your mind’s in the exact right state.

It’s all right here. In your very own state. And the memories that await you are infinite. So then, dear Battle Born adventurer. Maybe it’s time to discover YOUR Nevada.

Look at how red those colors are!
#fbf for this postcard-worthy day at redrockcanyonlv. This was just after I sliced my ankle to pieces on the cog and FaceTimed nurse_catchit instead of going to the doctor. #oops I now have a gnarly scar to always remember this trip by. There’s never a bad day in this park, and I’ll be back in September. Hopefully with less injuries and a few climbing ropes this time. (Cough cough benjisaurus.) #redrockcanyon #vegasbaby #outdoorvegas #ventureready #nevada #adventure #cycling
At the top of a mountain looking over the whole world is the best place to clear your mind and reflect. 📷by 11.06am

It's time to apply for tickets to tour this gorgeous freak. Fly Geyser, not far from the putty-colored playa known as Black Rock Desert, is a technicolor blend of iron (red), sulfate (yellow), and algae (yup, the green crud) on private property in northern Nevada. It was born in 1964 when the drill from a geothermal company accidentally exposed it. After 55 years, it's getting a little taller and a touch lovelier by the year. Details and ticket info at blackrockdesert.org/fly-geyser

The oldest living organisms on Earth lying patiently in the shadow of Wheeler Peak and the glacier. These freakin trees are older than Jesus guys. Also the trail through this forest was full of so many loose rocks I swear I nearly twisted my ankles a dozen times. Be safe out in the middle of nowhere guys. I also love this first photo because you can see the Great Basin desert stretch off into the distance at roughly ~6,000ft less elevation in a dozen miles.
