(visited by Brent Bolen)

26-May-2001 -- This confluence is not hard to get to, it's only about 500 feet from the road, but it's a long way from anywhere. I had spent the night in Fallon Nevada. From there I went about 50 miles east on US 50, "The Lonelist Road in America". From there it's 18 miles south on State Route 361. When I got near, I noticed that someone else had pulled to the side of the road at the same place recently, and out there, there could be only one reason, so I was not suprised to see a small pink flag within a couple of feet from where my eMap said the confluence was. I went ahead and put my little flag at the confluence, acording to my eMap, and took some pictures.
