The Extraterrestrial Highway

The Extraterrestrial Highway stretches 100 miles through southern Nevada from Alamo to Warm Springs.

There is not much on it. Some pretty desert scenery,

a derelict mine,

and a lot of cows.

There are only two towns along the highway — the tiny hamlet of Rachel,

and Warm Springs, a ghost town.

It is also how you get to the road to Groom Lake, which is not on the map, and has no identifying sign.

It leads to the area outside of the area outside of Area 51, where Rick got his picture taken thus:

  1. I like the suit, very appropriate. also that the picture has a sign in the background specifying no pictures allowed. Stickin it to the man!

  2. Daranee: I didn’t see any springs in that area, but maybe I don’t know where to look. Groom Lake is a salt flat, which you aren’t allowed to visit. Tourists aren’t invited.
