We paused here for the night. A few big rigs in the lot. We were able to find a level place without difficulty behind Whiskey Pete’s. We were near the entrance to the dry lake bed. A couple of TT’s headed there.
Cell service is sketchy. 5ge 2 bars. 8.78 Mbps download 2.59 Mbps upload.

We pulled in about 3:30pm. Checked in with the security patrol and inquired if we could stay the night. She said yes and gave us the choice of the outer parking lot (paved) or the dirt overflow lot. The overflow dirt is marked “no overnight parking” so it was good to ask. Several trucks in the dirt lot as well as a couple of trailers. 4 ot 5 RV’s in the outer paved lot.
We were cautioned to “lock up tight” over night (security leaves at 11:00pm). No worry of violent crime, but many homeless in the area. The parking area was clean and the restrooms in Walmart were convenient. Burger King inside (not recommended). Jack-in-the-Box in the lot.
