Making my way closer to Nevada, short of 3:00 p.m. I was close to the border but not quite so I decided to stop for the night at this BLM site on US 50.
It's a site depicted on allstays.com, but really the site itself is just a small parking lot with a pit toilet and a picnic table, it's all there for a nearby trailhead to Notch Peak.
I decided instead to backtrack a little bit closer to the highway to this wide open parking area:
Sevier Lake has apparently been a dry lake bed for most of it's known history since it's recording by the Spanish as Lago Meria. It is apparently Utah's second largest dry lake.
I am not sure whether I will stay more than one night or spend the rest of the weekend here. It is the Columbus Day weekend after all, so some folks will be taking Monday off to do some camping I think.
Here's some pics that I took this morning since I was up before dawn:
I'll Make a decision in the morning as to whether or not to stay here the weekend.
The sunset wasn't too bad...
Very windy here today. Altitude: 4777 ft. Hot when sunny, comfortable in the shade or when cloudy.

You must select the best spots and that is why people choose to set up near you :). More great photos!
Dang copycats!
