Road Trip Part 2 - Camping

From Monterey we had a full day of driving ahead of us. We weren't sure how far we would get, but our goal was Nevada.


We took a break for lunch at a park.

We started seeing lots of mountains and snow!



We made it to Nevada and ended up finding some BLM land to camp on near Winnemucca. It was absolutely beautiful down a dirt road in the middle of a valley. We didn't see a single person the entire night.


We got to work setting up our spot while we still had daylight.

Then it was time for dinner - hot dogs!

Benny did a great job building the bed in the back. It was a tight fit but we both slept great and were plenty warm.

The next morning the cows greeted us.


Washing dishes in the river.

Time to keep moving!


We went through the rest of Nevada into Idaho.



We ended up staying in Idaho just before we reached the Montana border.

The snow leading to our campground was far too deep to traverse, so we just set up our site where we could.

It was cold!


As cold as it was, it was another warm night of sleep - we were not short on blankets.

We were excited for the next morning. We packed up as soon as we could and took breakfast on the road. Today we were going to Yellowstone!

We quickly entered Montana, then Yellowstone, then Wyoming all within 30 minutes.


Those pictures will be coming next!
