Dixie Valley weekend Oct 16 & 17

[Brett J]

Join us for a day or the weekend as we explore both the Dixie Valley area where a simulated hostile nation was created on American soil in the 1940’s and the nearby Bernice Ghost Town

Military equipment, both functional and not, is scattered among the ruins of old homesteads and ranches, a landscape that represents an integrated air defense system comprised of 37 real or simulated radars, the defenses of a generic hostile land. And did we mention, Tanks, Tanks and more Tanks!

Where: Dixie Valley, NV (see GPX file attached)
(located approx 65 miles from Fallon, NV. Go 40 miles east to State Route 121 and drive up around 25 more miles)

When: Wheels up from the above location at 10am, Saturday October 16th for those who wish to join us for the day.

A number of club members will go up on Friday afternoon to camp Friday and Saturday nights for those who would like to make a weekend of it.

Here an article with more information about the area:

Looks like we are canceling due to cold weather.
