W7HKD: We do radio every year from the Playa NE of Gerlach. Not too bad. This is where I set my UHF Repeater for our Sept stay out there. It's about the only hill that has a road to it, and it is right above the playa.

Petr AG6EE activated this several times in 2019 and 2020. He writes: This is not remote, about 6 miles to I-80, and frequently traveled. If you had trouble you would not wait for help too long, the road is a major shortcut. Noisy overhead High Voltage lines, so I usually descend a bit to lose the view to North here.

Lloyd K7NX activated DN00ob back in 2011. His QSL card was a picture of his truck and camper atop this hill near Lovelock, NV. The photo looks like he had a negative horizon in some directions and it was a VERY desolate location. Completely barren but tremendous view. It doesn't look like it requires a 4WD vehicle to get there.
