US-50, between Fallon (pop 9325) and Middlegate (pop 17). These roads demarcate the northernmost and westernmost edges of the US Naval Test Range, where the Top Gun program is held. about 15 miles north of here is a ghost town I've visited called La Plata, where there is a single marble marker and some stone walls where the courthouse once was; five miles southwest is the Project Shoal nuclear test site. twenty miles south is a massive flats between Fallon and Hawthorne that works as a cut-through; it's also absurdly dark, with broad horizons, and I stargazed there. about seven miles due East is Fairview Peak, which I climbed this summer.
now that I think about it, this was almost my NV (0,0).
