There's definitely some opportunities to drive out on the lake bed, i saw a few people doing it near Frog Springs. Another good one... lunar lake near lunar crater in Nevada. I had fun driving my camper van out on that one!
Thanks Martin! I'm glad a places like fields station exists there, in the middle of nowhere, and thrives with their shakes. Just what i needed after a long day
Oh man, that Seeking Lost Special Burger and shake sure looked yummy. Great journey through the dry and arsenic water lakes. Awesome views you've shared. Fantastic!
I don't know if that marsh is normally like that, or if it was a wet spring that did it. Either way, i would go around that area to the north if i were to do it again!
A lot of the ODT is challenging in one way or another. But i think the Steens would be a good option for a backpacking trip, once the snow has melted of course!
A fence across the lake? Can't those fish just Get Along! Lithium claim was interesting, it's the New Gold. There's a new mine in the works right across the border in Nevada.
Haha! gotta keep the westside fish away from the eastsiders, they don't get along. I heard about that lithium mine in Nevada... i thought i heard its the only one in operation in the US. Big push now for "rare earth minerals" now too.
I'm not laughing at you, I'm laughing *with* you (only because I've trudged across stinky, swampy marsh like that a few times, myself). I could practically smell it through the video. Glad you made it in time to enjoy a well-deserved cheeseburger! Onwards and upwards!

Burger and a milkshake-awesome! So far, I’m really digging the terrain that you’re moving through on this hike. The isolated landscapes are so wild.
I've eaten at that table!
Great video! Thank you
My days of backpacking are over, but this area looks great for adventure vehicles. Thanks for the videi.

Thats motivation.
I stopped at Fields once many years ago and had a shake and it looks like things haven't changed! love your hike!

Wow! The suggested route stinks! Those borax springs are scary ...

I keep looking for a section on the ODT that might be fun to backpack. So far it’s a hard no.

Fence across playa may be to keep cattle from dying too far from water, hence the name 'Dead Cow Lake'.
The mud was unbelievable in this section.

That 1st lithium mine is in Silver Peak, just W of Goldfield.
@@angeloangelojoseph1494 ah yes, that's the one i was thinking of. I still haven't been through Goldfield yet. Need to spend another summer in Nevada!
Goldfield is a Living ghost town, 75% of the bldgs are empty, and haunted. Especially the Goldfield Hotel and the high school. So much History there.
I've encountered a few playas with claim stakes. A surprise when landing a plane.

Fields Station, best hamburgers for 50 miles😂
Agreed!
That "dry" lakebed needs to have its name changed to, "Muddy Salty Smelly Watch out for barbed wire fences" bed!
Turned you off when you profaned the Lord due to your decisions. Poor taste .
Maybe he prayed to jesus claus for forgiveness after saying GOD DAMMIT!
Religious people🙄
@@jamesm932 Good point. I forgive you both. Blessings.
