Another Strange Odd Creepy Town In Nevada Desert Near Area 51! Abandoned Cars & Trucks

- Driving North from Las Vegas we encounter the "Area 51 Circle" as I call it.... way out in the Nevada Desert. A vast area of odd UFO sightings, Military bases, strange quirky towns, abandoned cars and trucks and all manner of weirdness! Totally fascinating! One of the first funky towns we hit along the route is Beatty, Nevada. Entering Beatty from the South is a unique experience. You drive for a hundred miles out of Vegas and see almost nothing but desert....then you come across what looks like a permanent Flea Market. A mile long line of folks in tents, trailers and creaky buildings selling roadside treasures. It's a 7 day a week thing....and it's pretty interesting! This is the south entrance to Beatty! A very old town from the early days of the West....Beatty has a lot of cool heritage buildings and it's also the "gateway to Death Valley". We decided to shoot a video us driving through the town one recent trip. Hope you enjoy the ride along with us! ~Kenneth
Only a few miles from Las Vegas and already in the desert, newsflash, you were in the desert before you left Las Vegas.
For real!!! DUMBASS'S LMMFAO
I'm from nowhere remotely close to Nevada and I didn't think it was weird or creepy, just a small town in the desert. Id love to go to the SW some day!
yeah just a bad title choice! I think they should stop at a brothel and chill out.... lol
What is so creepy about this town? I would find this place fascinating. All the older stuff that you rarely see? Very cool! Let your imagination run wild!
Beatty is a friendly little town where you can feel the history just by walking down the street. And if you live in Nevada long enough youvfc realize those aren't desolute areas, they're elbow room with space for all kinds of people!!
Wow, That was fun . Thanks for letting us tag along . Really like the still shots of the Flea Market stuff .
Funky? Looks like freedom to me, where busybody neighbors can't dictate to you what you are allowed to have on your property.
I agree...
Exactly!! Terrible title! They sure didn't miss the cat houses though! Amen to FREEDOM! Go back to the big city freakos! lol
This was barely showing the town and all those pauses were annoying.
Love the quirky desert of Nevada. So many little towns to explore.
Traveled that road back in Feb 1974 with a friend (We were 18 YO) from Vegas to Reno in a CJ5 jeep. (We were from S. Texas).
We were practically the only ones on the road (No speed limit either) and none of that was there- just barren desert and a store. One stretch went about 200 miles and no gas station, no radio stations, no food or water- no stops as I remember.
It was 2 a.m. in the morning and we had headlights behind us suddenly for a few miles, then it looked like they were going to pass us, but instead of going around, the lights disappeared into thin air, right out in the middle of nowhere. Spooked us big time!
The road was much smaller- just two tiny lanes and no paved shoulder.
I do remember I loved the solitude of the desert and stopping on the side and seeing billions of stars with total unbelievable awe!
Billions of stars!! Isn't the sky amazing out in the desert? Ya...you can still really motor along on that highway. We see people goin by us at 90+ MPH quite often! Long stretches of total solitude. ~Kenneth
It's almost as if you're on another planet.
I still have a few pictures of Vegas and some of the desert from then and me hugging a tree when we got to Reno.
My friends Uncle owned "Hanks Radiator Shop" there which I'm sure is gone now.
Went to Pyramid and Lake Tahoe and the snow was piled 10 feet high on the side of the road going up there. Kings Castle was a new building/gambling place.
Memories! Sigh! It was a good time to be alive for sure.

Truly...."on another planet" is always how we feel when we travel the desert! No matter how many hundreds of times we may have traveled these route over the past 25+ years...it's precisely how we feel! Thanks for your great comment! ~Kenneth
1@was
newstart49 There weren’t any headlights behind you. You just made that part up for effect.
Coming from the UK, this is like another planet to me. I would love to drive through the desert. Maybe one day.
***** Yeah, area 51 wouldn't interest me. It's the history of the old shops and stuff that i would like. Maybe one day.
***** I always say that if it were not for Spain, the UK hols folk would never know what it was like in California/Nevada desert. Of course maybe not as much junk on the side of the road, but the atmosphere and vibe, weather etc., are almost the same. I feel like I am home when I am in the Spanish desert.
Until you break down lol. Then the magic is gone REAL quick.
+David Benally Yeah make sure the cooling system in your car is in tip top shape lol. If it's an older car that is not up to service, the high desert is where it's going to overheat on you :/
olskoolnewpaint lol that's also the point when you're saying damn, this would be the worst place to break down
Omg. You guys discovered deserts, dunes,and little desert communities no one ever seen before. And make a video about it. Wow. I'm speechless.
I would love to explore that town! Thanks for the upload.
Man...I would love to see you get the chance to explore here! You'd love it!! Have a great week. ~Ken
@Lloyd Bonafide That's why its interesting...
How I love to visit America before I die
@@alwhm22 I hope you visit one day my friend!!
I would love to go picking through those 'flea markets'! Imagine the old tools, vises and all that good stuff!
Love your videos, when I go to Las Vegas I want to take a ride to Beatty, taking pictures of the old barns and signs and what ever else is in the desert. The old abandoned buildings are creepy when they are far from any people or town.
Thanks! There is a cool place just outside of Beatty called Rhyolite. A very short drive and well worth it for viewing creepy old abandoned buildings and cars!! Creepy.....but fascinating. Check it out when you go. ~Kenneth
Nothing creepy or odd here.
There are towns and sights like this throughout the deserts in the west.
+George Vreeland Hill Ive been to most of the ''STRANGE TOWNS'' in Nevada , and nothing strange. Just an old shaby town in the west
+George Vreeland Hill Nothing odd? So you say all those immigrations in our capitals isn't odd, while there is plenty of space near a secretive base.
+George Vreeland Hill There's a lot of weird small towns in So. Dakota.
Grant W. Whitwam Why do some parts of the world keep unpopulated? Doesn't that seem strange.
Seems ok to me. Many areas suck because of heat, cold, poverty, laziness, bad terrain, dry unlivable conditions.
As a Nevada native I find places like this comfortable, not creepy. I love the dry desert smell of towns like Beatty. The cottonwood tufts in the air in May. Where I get freaked out is in places like Orange County; Irvine, Mission Viejo... Reminds me of Stepford Wives or some kind of pod people taking over the Earth with homogenized blandness. But I know that's just me and my reverse snobbery; and I'm sure not gonna make some condescending video about it...
👍
I’m born and raised an South Orange County girl, Laguna, Dana Point, Coto de Caza and Lade a Ranch Area. You are 100% right it’s a steford wives type of place and I have to admit I did grow up in a bubble, South Orange County is all I’ve ever known besides Scottsdale and Marana Arizona. I’ve never been outside of cities or towns that were not some sort of resort living, with that being said and now my children in college and my husband a football coach we are traveling a lot and I now have seen what it’s like in small towns. I now live in the country in Central California, because that’s where his job took him to coach college, although a culture shock at first to both of us, I have to admit the small town life has lots and lots of advantages. The people here are amazing, no hustle or bustle they move slow (which still drives me crazy coming from down south) but I’m glad I’ve gotten the chance to see what it’s like to live outside of Orange County. I still have to learn to relax a little to enjoy the country life, but I really really do miss the smell of the Ocean at night, the sounds of the waves crashing onto the shore, the late night walks at the harbor, my heart misses that life but my heart is also starting to slowly enjoy the country. Life is an adventure and with my husband being a coach and a coaches career is never stable unless you keep winning, has him always on the lookout for other positions that may pop up in some unusual place, town or city. I’m enjoying learning and living in different parts of the state of California and Arizona and now just bought in Texas (don’t live there though), and looking forward to seeing where college coaching takes us one day next. Cheers to small town life and to the big cities as well ❤️
What a condescending bitch
What and deprive everybody the chance to say a bunch of stupid shit about something you just did for the fun of it.
@@PersonalStash420 she literally said about 40 times in her comment...football coach!
Love these quirky little towns. Something about the desert SW that seems to encourage people to be their own little freaky selves. If I could find steady work someplace like that I'd live in one.
Ya...we also love it....very very much! That is why we keep going to the desert! Year after year....hundreds of times now. Just LOVE it!! Thanks for the comment! ~Kenneth
@@DesertKingTravel I'm also from Canada Vancouver actually well actually tsawassen.I'd like to buy some property around there but I like to be close to water like a river or lake and preferably cheap like an acre what would you suggest if you don't mind ? 🍻✌️🇨🇦
I love Nevada! I grew up in Vegas/ Henderson/ Boulder City... Thank you for the memories!
How I love to visit America before I die
Thanks for video. We drive up those areas almost every january. Up thru the great smoky valley is very nice and the way to Austin, also a great place to stay, Goldfield is interesting. it's cold in January. It's a lot of land up there.
That was really great! Thanks for the inspiration for future trips…
Nothing odd or creepy except the person shooting the video.
Agree , I didn't see anything odd or creepy . Just old time America .
I agree with you,he is a creep.
Now you made me laugh.
(And why does he keep saying "Haha" all the time--in THIS and OTHER videos, like the trip he took to Alkali and Silver Peak, Nv..)
Oh, yeah, you're really missing out if you haven't invested 5 minutes of your life to watching THAT one.
@Las Vegas Free Press gotta see the "bottle house".
What a horrible video
I think it's cool that there's still some funky old towns out there. they sometimes have more character than places that are overbuilt
+Jared Telford They always have more character, no matter what state they're in.
ANOTHER BRAINWASHED SUPERIOR MORON! OUT THERE? REALLY??? BEYOND CIVILISATION???? THERE ARE THOUSANDS IF NOT TENS OF THOUSANDS, MAYBE 100,000+ LITTLE TOWNS LIKE THIS IN THE US. MORE STILL ALL OVER THE WORLD. GET OFF THE FREEWAY SOME TIME AND LEARN THE MEANING OF "IT'S THE JOURNEY NOT THE DESTINATION" WHY LIVE YOUR ONLY LIFE SERVING GREED?
Thanks for the tour. Hope to take that route one of these days.
Thanks For the Updated Tour - Nicely Done.
Used to live/stationed there 1971, so that was pretty neat to revisit.
Hard to believe it grew that much.
Probably most from those who also used to be based there.
gives me a sense of mysteriousness and a little bit of 'Danger' and i LOVE This!!! Awesome vid Kenneth ;D Steven
Hello and great to hear from you Steven! Thanks so very kindly! ~KJ
Kind of "Uppity" sort of folks aren t you? Like a couple others said,....snobs. Check yourself, people!
I've been here twice and love it! I was living in Las Vegas and it was great to get out of town. There is a mineral hot springs that is fun and cheap...very basic. We would drive up and eat chili at the Happy Burro and then the next day drive down through Death Valley back to Vegas. Wonderful carefree adventure, I sure do miss it.
Hi and thanks Melinda! Ya...we sure do love it as well! Never get tired of the desert adventures! Towns like this are tons of fun. Some are VERY spooky...especially the towns way off the main Highway. Beatty has become a bit less so through the years...but man...back in the mid 1980's when we first started touring the desert....Beatty was plenty creepy....certainly at night. Fascinating either way! Take care and hope you have a great week. ~KsKing
Great video. Reminds me of the vacations I had in the southwest years ago. Beautiful country.
Well, that was seven minutes I’ll never get back.
Thanks for the interesting video - I love driving through there and the Big Smoky Valley too...gotta love it! Subbed!
Desert King Travel : Great videos! Keep up the great work Thanks!
Great place to settle in and relax...thanks for this video!
Like this, especially when the playback was paused so we could look at stuff. Thanks for posting.
Thanks Stephen! Take care and have a super 2015 ok? ~Kenneth
Stephen Williams yes stuff more interesting than your printed words. insulting. people that are fabric of AMERICA. AS WE ALL ARE. BIMBO
Looks like a beautiful little town! I’d love to visit it someday!
Many thanks for the truly terrific youtube video. I am looking forward to enjoying various more of your youtube videos real soon.
i find beauty in all this
"More Vintage tin" is a 1952-53 Lincoln , very rare car !!
I know i have a 1953 Lincoln Capri 2 door hardtop, i may have to see if i can buy it !!!!
Nice vid. Nothing creepy about it other than this is real America. We got town like this all over the US.
Only thing creepy was the videographers..... lol
*_We can't stop here....This is back Country!_*
That town seems rad!!!
I’d love to see your house by the way.
I spent over a decade in and around Las Vegas so this doesnt seem so strange to me... no stranger than other rural areas. The candy castle should be visited by all who travel that route!
Yes...of course this town may not appear strange or unusual to you....that makes perfect sense! Hahaha...however...to us....it's like being on the moon! SO incredibly different than anything we'd ever see here. So strange...yet so fascinating too. We just LOVE it...and ALL of the amazing desert Southwest! Take care...and have a super 2015. ~Kenneth
***** I had a similar feeling the first time through that area but then again Las Vegas seemed like another world too. I travel through there so many times now though it seems normal. Next time maybe I will follow one of those roads that look like they go nowhere.. there are all kinds of interesting things in what appears to be middle of nowhere.
keensweep
Oh ya...for sure! Those roads really DO go to some strange places!! We've found that out...because we've been down them. In fact....this is the "theme" of my channel...."strange odd creepy desert sights". For example: ruclips.net/video/EhXDnQEgRqg/видео.html
Great vid Kenny! Thanks for sharing!
Oh hi and thanks Frank! Nice to see you over at the travel channel!! Take care. ~KJ
Wow this place looks awesome I love dangerous, mysterious stuff! Hey, have you ever visited Amboy? That place intrigues me! I'd love to go!
Wish it was longer! I love the desert but haven't been there in so long, it was nice to see it again😊 Ty!
I like this, Thanks. Travelling to a place I'd never visit, without leaving my home in the UK.
Thanks kindly! I find it all very fascinating...the vast USA desert. So many oddball little towns.....many of them hundreds of miles/kilometers apart from each other. Some on the "main roads" as depicted here in this video...and some much more spooky towns located well off the beaten path. Hope things are well and good in the UK. Take care. ~KJ
I know! Isn't RUclips really great for that?
Eve Barrett-Drew
Yes! Love sharing here on RUclips! Have a great New Year! ~Kenneth
***** Dear Desert King- I wanted to pass a few things onto you if I may: I love RUclips but I have found that over a period of time, I'd end watching something where a) I had no idea how i got there and b) I watched something I wish I had not. I will always be a fan of RUclips but I have been spending a considerable amount of time watching TEDTalks (www.ted.com) These Conferences) are basically credible scientists and humanitarians who get up and share real life stories on every subject imaginable. It is free-the organization is non-profit. Personally, I have learned SO MUCH and "been" to far corners of the world, I never will probably get to visit in person. Please check it out.- you will be so glad you did and will walk away NOT feeling awful - maybe a little startlingly enlightened but you are more in control. Also, the education level of people you share comments with is on a whole other level -more intelligent and diplomatic. Also, you can become a part of helping by participating in TEDTalks in many different ways. and the content to watch (sorry to say) leaves RUclips in the dust. Please check out TEDTalks- I think you will feel as I did when I found it- grateful!
I also see you are in the travel industry-correct? I just happen to have a few videos on my RUclips channel that as a travel professional, you might like to take a look at. My Mother lives in Bullhead City, AZ (Laughlin Area) and I have a video about the area. Actually, the Laughlin Chamber of Commerce saw it and they actually thanked me for uploading it. I have another video showing and telling the history of Ely, Nevada as well MYSELF being a Las Vegas resident, I have uploaded some good videos that highlight some of our most hottest tourist attractions; 2 of them specifically are the High Roller Observation Wheel and the Stratosphere. You might find them useful or at the very least-entertaining. Get back to me if you feel inclined, I'd be interested in knowing your take on TEDTalks. ;-) Take Care! .
I do a similar thing with Google Earth for the UK to drive down country roads and see the place LOL! Saw a beautiful camping area one time.
so much potential with all the old cars you passed i seen what looked like a front clip to a 47-49 chevy and much more
This is a great vid! Thank you for sharing
I enjoyed that short video of town. It was neat to see. Thanks for sharing.
Haha, the Shady Lady Brothel :D
Our latest "strange town in the Nevada Desert" video! Perhaps not as creepy and spooky as some other towns featured on our channel....and not nearly as odd as it was 25 years ago...but still plenty strange....especially at night! And...when compared to the perfectly manicured resort area where we live....oh ya...it's still mighty spooky! ~Kenneth #spookytown #nevadadesert #area51
A CATAL
Thanks very much and yes....we will be heading to Nevada soon and will shoot some more footage of the trip! Take care and thanks again. ~KJ
I think it is because people saw alien ships and were scared so they ran away
Amir Buniatzade
Hahahaha...most likely!! ~Kenneth
There using Area 51 less because of some complications. Radiation from the ground that came from the nuclear tests from the 40's is coming back up. Have you noticed any of the evacuations they have had to do?
Running through parts of TENNESSEE is what the Indians called the 'trail of tears because they where chased out by the white-man.But over the last ten years a new trail has opened up and its known as 'the freedom road] because of all the poor family's who traveled it to get to KY to escape the abuse by tennessee police.The road runs beside I65 north and its runs north and south and some go own to INDIANA but most stay in KY. Their was a sign as you cross over from tennessee into KY that read ,WELCOME TENNESSEANS YOUR MISERY AND SUFFERING ENDS HERE but it was taken down by officials after TENNESSEE raised hell about it.As you travel through tennessee you will see small deserted towns completely abandoned by the poor people and when they left the towns dried up the rich and the police had no more slaves to work cheaply and no one to abuse so now everything is empty .' Tennessee officials trying not to lose face told a reporter from CNN that people left because of no jobs they wouldn't admit the truth and say because of the Violent and brutal tennessee police.If you drive down I65 north or going own I65 south from Indian or Nashville to Indianapolis you will see the road.
I absolutely love Beaty, I have been many times and look forward to going many more. One time when going through Beaty, across from Mel’s diner I saw 2 resident donkeys just hanging out eating by a road sign. Very cool.
Great video! Nice editing and pausing on the little shops and things here and there. I bet you brought that town some attention and other adventure seekers to it!
Oh, yes all very creepy and odd, lol.
How is this strange and creepy? Pretty dumb title, my friend.
+MrJuanbaz Agreed. As a European who's never been to the USA I'ld say this place looks relaxed and friendly, not at all like DESPERATION (lol).
Thank you for posting this video
Awesome share and channel here well done see you again be safe cheers
why is it creepy did a child do this title
If you think this area is strange, northern nevada will blow you away. Beatty is las vegas compared to what's up north about 6 hours
Hi and thanks! Yup...been ALL over Norther Nevada. From Reno over to Ely. Done all of Hwy 50 many times. Probably driven every marked (and many un-marked) road in Nevada dozens of times through the years...all of it super fascinating! Those will be videos for a future time. Thanks a bunch...... and you take care! Happy Road Trips to ya! ~KJ
***** Just found your channel.. you guys need to do way more videos. Look into the Dixie Valley,NV area. It's pretty rural!
RoadTripVidz Ya for sure! We were through there back in the 90's. I remember getting to it via Hwy 50 and then turning onto 121. All the years we've been traveling...it's only the past few we've finally decided to shoot a bit of video. I'll make sure on future trips we get back to Dixie Valley! Good tip and thanks. ~KJ
Do you guys off road at all? or just car trip it?
RoadTripVidz
We do tons of off-roading here in Canada. Mainly Vancouver Island (where we live) which is off-road paradise! We live in a stunning small city called Victoria. Vancouver Island is huge. 375 miles long by about 80 miles wide. TONS of pristine wilderness accessible via Forestry roads. Great fun!! ~KJ
Neat! Thanks for uploading the vid.
Thanks! Have a great New Year. ~Kenneth
Holy cow when I was a kid my aunt and uncle lived in cali and we lived in Vegas and we always went thru this town on our way to visit and we always stopped at the same gas station cause the guy had a talking minah bird that we all thought was cool, that's been probably 45 plus years ago now, great memory of a little desert town...♡
Nothing ODD about this. just small town America is all.
Love little creepy towns like that! Tons of those out here in the midwest as well!
Driving into little off the main road towns like that is a lot of fun. That's where you see the real America. If I could live in a place like that, I'd love it!
Excellent and informative video. A+. Also, An extra + for pausing at the scenes. 👍👍👍
I came here to reminisce visiting Beatty. Cant wait to go back and visit
"Ewww there's nothing in Nevada! I hate being in the middle of nowhere!"
As someone who prefers being in the middle of nowhere, go back to the city if you need a Starbucks fix. These places only have Ma & Pa stores and that's the way I like it.
Matt Allen god i wish i could find a way to sell my home,pack up and move there. it is 3 degrees here and the furnace is burning about 300 bucks a month.
Sign me up Tired of the City !
That's what I thought I live in the country my house was built in the 20s my dad's built around 1900 or a little later love it we have a few stores and it's 30 min to get to town cows chickens hills and farmground
Matt Allen ....you cannot be a real true male, man.if you need a starbucks fix. Seriously, get over it. ALL DWEEBS PLEASE EXIT THE COUNTRY. MAGA BABY, MAGA. YES, our POTIS WILL BE POTUS FOR ANOTHER 5 LOVELY N LIVELY YEARS. GOD I WISH I WOULD HAVE FOUND YOUR COMMENT BEFORE.Truly. Be a man. Danielle🕊🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅

Take care, God bless you n yours man. Really🕊🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅Danielle in PhillyPA....my bad🤤😲
I've driven that route between Las Vegas and Reno more times than I can count.
I miss it. . :'(
Awesome tour video...loved it. Very nice. Was annoyed by the hillbilly trailer you were following though. Haha
I stayed in the Stagecoach Casino and Hotel north of Beatty on my way from Oregon to Nashville in 08. That drive down from Reno is another world. Loved it.
Want "creepy" try San Francisco or Seattle!
THAT’S FOR SURE !!
Don't forget the liberal shit stain of Portland.
I rode through Beaty, Nevada, back in 1976, on my Harley. No gas stations, no anything. I had to siphon gas out of a car w/no people and a flat tire. At least Harley got tanked from that ghost town with an abandoned car. All I saw there was a few tumbling tumbleweeds.
That truck is hauling barrels of water. Not a “Hillbilly Trailer”.
Cool video and a Thumbs Up !
Run down towns, abandoned cars, creepy abandoned buildings and military bases. You have just discribed the entire American Southwest. Also, it never ceased to amaze me. during my years in the military that every time we sent some small convoy from one base to another to send some unit to do a training rotation. Every whacked out libertarian extremist within 50 miles would have a freekin fit and be totally convinced that it was a sign that the government was about to declare martial law. Not just sick but for a group of people who constantly brag about how they are the only true patriots it is and was insulting to both active duty and vets.
William Bahr .I don't believe these people are unpatriotic
You talking about chem- TRAIL rotations every four months so no ones to know ho is ho, f..... government sucking the life out of us, then poisoning our air and lands,driving jet streams makes me drop out .
The driver doesn't realize he's driving through an atomic proving ground and all the "abandoned" cars glow at night :)
The atomic test sites is about 200 miles SW from Beatty. The background radiation at the site is actually less than downtown LA
It's a very nostolgic place. I live ppl that hate to see good things ruin. Nice footage. Thank you!
Very good clip. Thanks
If not heaven for Aliens must be a heven for American Pickers!
Great video, i love little towns like that. So much mystery!.
Thanks Anthony! Ya...although this town is a little less spooky than others we feature here on our channel...it's still plenty odd enough when you're from a big city! We love it all though....so fascinating! Prospero Año Nuevo...have a great successful New Year! ~Kenneth
Anthony Guerrero
Muy buen video amigo i love this kind stuff..
to Desert King- Love your cool videos! Looks a bit like my area outside of Palm Springs. My next road trip, I'll have to explore your state!
I love this video! Thank you!
You missed the best part of that town. The Hot Springs... I love camping there and using the facilities. Really big hot springs rooms. They have three temps to pick from.
Do you have to pay to go to the hot springs ? or is it like a natural hot springs out in out in the nature or the desert I guess. I'm thinking about buying some property there and I like to swim in the rivers and lakes just curious . Thanks Troy from Seattle 🍻
nothing strange,odd or creepy.
Lol I broke down in Beatty for a couple days. We tented on the mechanics land - we could see that brothel from our spot. Interesting town, lots of nice people. Cool videos. I love the desert and all that is absurd about it.
love Nevada - so big - so open - anything goes - mountains and endless blue skies and the open road
I can see why you turned off ratings. I love little towns that have not lost their human character with a bunch of corporate stores that you can find anywhere in North America.
I hate it when every small town you pass through has the same stores, same chain restaurants, laid out in the same way as the next ten little towns. Like many here, I find Arbies and Subway towns creepy, with little of interest in them. Almost all of the original local stores and businesses disappear once the corporate crap takes over.
Those places were interesting, not creepy, at all. For me, those interesting little towns were the best part of driving through the deserts. I have met a lot of unique interesting individuals who live there, as well. People who would pick up on your attitude, instantly. Believe it or not, they find folks who think like you to be real creepy.
I guess creepy is in the eye of the beholder. You use the term "creepy" as click bait, on may of your videos.
Fortunately, there are others with a better attitude. I am from hillbilly country. There was nothing hillbilly about the pu truck with the water barrels. Your sense of humour sucks.
had you been to a town called Beatty? Like=yes comment= not been to
@@dantheman7514 Hope to go one day...!
What? Nothing odd about Beatty. I lived there for nearly 2 years, while in the Military. Back then.. (80s) 1 restaurant, gambling of course, a bar, 1 store.. Oh and the BUS came thru (LTR) that is. Today.. what, a Motel 6, a larger casino.. candy shop. Not sure about a store.
I'm from Fallon up north. I like the Western heritage of the place and the isolation. It hasn't changed much and that's the way I like it. My family and I live in Arizona now. But, we visit home often.
Grew up in Austin. Great area.
Nice photos. Private owned stores. Like that. Cool
That was cool. Next time through maybe stop at some of the more interesting roadside flea markets. I'd like to see some of the strange things that turn up in little out of the way places like that.
One day on a back road in the mountains of East Tennessee I stopped at a little roadside antique/junk store. In the back, locked inside an old glass case, I found several real, not fake, WWII German Army Afrika Corp. uniform insignia. I imagine some kid from the area wound up in Africa fighting the Nazi German army and picked up a few souvenirs that he could carry in his pockets. After coming home the items probably got displayed for a while and then put away to be forgotten about. Then the guy grows old, passes away and all his Earthly possessions are cast to winds, his WWII souvenirs winding up in a little unheard of backwoods junk store until I found them. Now they sit tucked away in my collectable box awaiting my fall in which I'm sure they will once again wind up in some unusual place where some other "lucky" person will find them.
WARPHEAD n
So... this is the first time you've ventured out into the great big World.
FYI - there's 'funky' stuff just about everywhere.
Maybe you should get out more.
Great vid, thanks for sharing.
You're very welcome and thanks! ~Kenneth
Sorry to bust you but your military base by Beatty at @ 53.0 is Hawthorne, Nevada about 200 miles north - Military ammo depot.
Wow a million clicks, how are you man?
Thanks for the tour of the area. I never have been there, but thanks to your videos and narration, it seems like a nice town. I had no idea that there were towns like that in the desert. Thanks
Cool ! Wow what a beautiful place.
Very well done video! Thank you for it! i live in Reno, NV.
That place has a Subway? Good grief, I can only imagine what types of visitors they get in there. Imagine a disguised alien going in there and saying 'I want a ham and cheese footlong with extra green peppers and a chocolate chip cookie'. Seriously be careful who you serve to. Can aliens even eat our food?
For all they know, they might get an alien's order wrong and will end up getting shot at with a laser gun, but then again they'd be to civilized for that, aliens I mean. They'd probably be polite about it and overlook it since they know that they are superior and would forgive the blunderings of a lesser spieces then they. I say these things cause living next to a place like Area 51 would likely get bombarded by people from other planets. I'd hate to anger an alien by accident. ;)
What if it's the aliens.....who actually OWN the Subway??? Maybe that ham and cheese foot long is someone's pet poodle? These are things we may never know....and that's why I'm on the job....hahahaha....attempting to uncover it all! ~K

***** Bahahahahaha!
Maybe the aliens are nice and efficient I mean if their superior then they co use like lightsabers to chop the lettuce and use the laser guns to heat things up or teleport around the kitchen I mean I would go there to see how they do it especially the lightsabers I could get my face chopped off but it woul d be cool

I don't know how I came across this video but it's awesome. I like that you stop and get a better look and even when I do that myself, the still is clear. That isn't usually the case.
