Recently we had a chance to take a trip on Highway 50 in Nevada, the Loneliest Road in America from Fallon, NV to Baker, NV (Great Basin National Park). The Loneliest Road, which follows along the Lincoln Highway and the route of the Pony Express, is one of the most famous drives in the United States. We did the drive over two days in September 2020.
In this video we drive from Fallon to Great Basin National Park, stopping at Sand Mountain, Middlegate Station, Austin, Hickison Petroglyphs, Eureka, Ely, and Great Basin National Park.
Be sure to check out our video on Stokes Castle in Austin, NV too: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/aZh4jLKk1Z7FZ2w.html

If you think that the loneliest road in america is a bad thing, try living in a noisy city till you've almost been driven crazy, then that road starts to seem like bliss....No noise...No traffic jams...No stress..Ahhhhh yesssss.

I moved from North California to Fallon, Nevada, in 2006 for work. I thought I'd miss the trees, but I got to where I love the solitude of standing on a mountain and being able to see for a hundred miles. Fallon is where the real "Top Gun" Navy school is located. Love those jets when they fly by.

After I retired from the USAF in 1992, I sold my home and we moved from Sacramento, Ca to Olathe, Ks in February, 1993. We were going to take Interstate 80, but when we got to Reno, NV, I decided to take Highway 50, because we wanted to get to Interstate 70. I was towing a VW Squareback behind my Isuzu Trooper and we were averaging 80 MPH along that road. We went for hours without seeing another car on the road going in either direction. We also made sure we filled up at every gas station along the way, which are few and far apart. We passed through I think five or six passes over 7,000 feet high. The road is straight as an arrow and you can see fifty miles distance many places along the way! It was quite an adventure! There was snow on the top of the passes.

My wife and I drove US 50 the entire way from West Sacramento, CA to Ocean City, MD. It was a wonderful road trip, but we did it over a week, but if we had the time we could have taken several weeks to do the drive and explore.

I traveled the loneliest road in America in 1984 - Before Great Basin was designated by Congress. Lehman Caves was a separate place from Wheeler Peak which was just part of a National Forest. One thing left out about Wheeler Peak is that there are amazing groves of Bristlecone Pines. It’s a hike to get to them, but some of them are among the oldest living things in the World. Camping at the highest campground is a real experience. The cold winds in the course of the night are a real experience. You cannot miss it.

My wife and I have toured all 49 states that have a road to them and all but three Canadian Provinces. All on a trike. Three wheeled motorcycle. 2020 was our 50th wedding anniversary and for that, we had planned to fly to Hawaii and rent a motorcycle to complete our all 50 states motorcycle adventure. Well. COVID squashed that! So plan B was to ride highway 50 all the way from the east coast to the west coast. But several health problems with my 94 year old mother kept us close to home. Looks like Hawaii may still be out of the picture. Hopefully we will get to do highway 50 this year. Thanks for the video. I love road trip videos.

Hwy 50 from Ocean City to Placerville area (home) was one of the best trips I've ever taken. Second only the Trans-Canada or BC-Alberta-Yukon-Alaska. Varied terrain, climate, nice and not so nice cities and towns. Very nice people for the most part. Plan your overnights for the small towns, if possible. The weather in April was good and the tourist prices weren't up yet. Spent eight or nine days at a leisurely pace.

Back in the days when Californians all thought Nevada was just a giant racecourse, two college friends died out on Highway 50. It was late at night and a cow wandered on to the road. The cow didn't survive, either. A little after that, I was driving to Fallon in my brand new Plymouth Barracuda when I made the mistake of passing eight Hell's Angels on their bikes. They finally got tired of thee game, but not before we found out the Plymouth really could go 120 like the speedometer said (assuming the dang thing was accurate). That day I was more than willing to believe it really was the loneliest road in America.

Friendliest people there and a beautiful campground. Watching the sun set over the desert hills next to a campfire was the highlight. If you like road trips with little traffic and beautiful scenery, 50 is for you!

I've been on Hwy 50 in Utah and Nevada and have been to every place in this video. You can definitely see how it gets its name. Very spooky and eery, especially in Eastern Utah and Nevada. I live in Western Colorado and Hwy 5 goes through my town, it is not very lonely at all in most of Colorado and 4 lanes in many parts!!

It's so wonderful you're able to bring your family along with you and they get to see the country as well. I didn't get along with my parents as I had long hair and it was the 1960s. But they gave us all the love of travel, we cross country a few times ourselves! I think the gift of travel is the most important thing a parent can give a child! Expand their world and show them there's more than just their neighborhood! You're raising a great family!

Did a motorcycle trip, in 2018, following the Trans America Trail. Took a detour along highway 50 from Fallon, spending the night in Ely, to just over the Utah state line, before turning north and following the dirt trails of the Pony Express route, all the way up to West Wendover. Highway 50 could definitely could qualify for 'loneliest road', but i didn't see a single soul for 150 miles once off the loneliest road.

I have never found the highway to be very lonely. In many parts of the West, you can drive for hours and never see another sign of "civilization" be it cars. towns or people. Having said that, it is one of the most scenic and interesting roads to take. The side roads out into the weeds are great. I would avoid the side roads in the rain though.

I rode it solo on my motorcycle coming back home from a coast-to-coast trip back in 91. Got 'buzzed' from behind by some fighter-jet jockey which almost blew me off the bike; hec cleared the telephone poles by about that same height. Have water, you'll die in hours without it in the heat of the day. One stretch was over 120 miles between gas stations, and if either one is closed it's half that much further to the next one. High gas prices because they can. Wish I'd had time and money to do some side-exploring but had to get home. Worth the experience.

Denver to San Francisco on Hwy. 50 in February 1974. Butt-ass cold and not a lot of gas stations. We were just trying to make it to Carson City or Reno and not be left to freeze to death out there. Definitely the loneliest road I've been on. Made it to SF in time to see Bob Dylan and The Band at Oakland Coliseum.

Hi Steve...I've been watchin many of your Vids. I don't like to comment because I can imagine your are busy but i had to say something here. I did this road in my 1969 Caprice way back in the 1980's-90's west to east. I did collect the stamps and mailed away for the certificate but, after 45 years of collecting 'road-stuff' over my hundreds of road-trips, I have no idea where it is in all my clutter! Thank God my wife makes me keep it all in our crawl-spaces and just 3 bedrooms.

An English big Atlas, pub. in London, 1981; it had got some 24 pages dedicated for the huge North American contenent, including 2 p. for the western third of USA, so I could follow and accompany you along your fascinating trip! A very joyful experience! In my journey I could distinguish the whole road (drawn as a very thin red line), from the beggining to the end, with most of the towns you mentioned (Carson City, Fallon, Austin, Eureka, Ely...). Thanx again, Steve! 💐

This IS a lonely road. My dad took us on it on one of our vacations as a teen. An even lonelier road is the highway going north to south. I remember we were on it at night. The night was clear with some moon and lots of stars. From a slight height you could see the straight highway for many, many miles until it was lost over the horizon. No other headlights, no lights of any kind. Very lonely and somewhat scary. We were glad to get back on a more traveled road. My dad found it reminded him of trips with my grandparents by car from LA to Chicago in the 1930's to visit relatives. Back in the rugged days of car travel by highway.

I remember seeing points of interest for the Pony Express and I've always wanted to return. I have some memory of these small towns and it was great to watch your video! I use to a driver for a moving company and that job took me all over the nation. I usually was alone so I rarely stopped to sight see.

Driving Hwy 50 is definitely on my to-do list when the pandemic lets up. Checked out the Northern Nevada Railway museum in 2019, and will be spending time there again.

We are hoping to go back and check out some of the stuff we missed after this pandemic as well.

I got pulled over by a cop on HW50 some 100 miles from Eli. I got out of the ticket by pointing to the mileage on the van I was driving which had over 660,000 miles on it and said, "If I were a speeder, I would have lost my license a long time ago.

Great video. Places I need to go check out. You've probably heard this a thousand times, but your voice is vaguely reminiscent of Mark Hamill.....

Hey, San Diego Steve! Great video! Next time you are in Fallon, it would be great if you checked out the Naval Air Station, which is where Top Gun is now located (previously located at Miramar Naval Air Station in San Diego).
