Great place to go! I first went up in the summer of 77. Been there many times after, not so much since Burning man ruined the desert. They bought up a lot of the Free places to go , Fly Geyser and Cottonwood Canyon and put up keep out signs. Taught my kids how to drive on the playa. Not sure I can make it.
