Ely, NV

We headed out the morning of October 22nd towards Ely, NV. We knew that it was going to be another long and lonely drive on HWY 50. The elevation of Ely, NV is 6,260' and is at the head of the Great Basin National Park. We arrived safely in Ely and the temperature was 66 degrees. There were only two RV parks in Ely so we decided to stay in the most appealing. When we awoke in the morning, it was 19 degrees out and our city water hose was froze up. Thanks to Nancy's hair dryer, we got ourselves thawed out and headed to Utah on HWY 50. There did not seem to be any plumbing problems and we were excited to move on to Bryce Canyon National Park.
