Tarantula Canyon
With a name like this, who can resist? Head south one mile
from Beatty and turn east on a broad unmarked dirt road. Do not turn right at
the mine. Do not turn right to follow the power lines to the repeater station.
Take the third right and follow the dirt road into
Tarantula Canyon.

East and the way out. In the distance is
Yucca Mt., the site of the nuclear repository. Bear right(south) when
leaving the canyon, drive south past the Bare Mt. massif, and turn west to
rejoin #95.

I think I'll pass on the
under the stars bivy bag camping
while in the desert. Thanks anyway.
