Nevada Sled Campout
Got Invited on a 5 day, sled accessed splitboard trip to a small but wonderfully fun Nevada Mountain Range. Although my usual area was full to the brim with good snow, I figured being in for a new adventure and to get there by sled was worth giving up a few days of know good conditions for some exploration
Snow turned out to be pretty good with plenty of coverage and it was fun to do a multiday snow camp again
Starting out on the long drive
Got to Los Angeles to pick up the sleds and a couple of camp buddies
Many Miles of this view
Finally our destination in view
Trailhead organization
This area is TOP SECRET so you wont recognize this famous line in the area .
After loosing one sled to mechanical issues we finally made it to the camp spot
First night at the campsite

Awesome! What a great idea. I did a couple days of sled skiing in Lamoille in 2013, but I'd love to spend more time exploring the less popular areas (basically everything except Lamoille Canyon).

I did a backpacking trip out there on July 4th last year and the place was empty! We might have summited Lake Peak too. Awesome report! Did you guys stay at a yurt?
