Recently my dad retired after 42 years in the Aerospace industry. With all the extra time off, I wanted to take him on a week long excursion through central Nevada to visit historical mining towns. We would start off in Death Valley and make our way towards highway 95 to begin traveling north towards highway 50. This route would take us through Gold Point, Goldfield, Tonopah, Belmont, Austin and finally Virginia City near Reno. Ghost towns, whiskey saloons, hot springs, wide open trails and historical landmarks were just the beginning of an epic adventure we would remember for years to come. We were fortunate enough to have my friend Tom and his dad, Gunner along to share in the experience. I’m sure we’ll do another trip like this again!
