Leg 56- Nov 12- Echo Bay, NV

Myles applies Nevada

We had planned to stop and stay in Valley of Fire.  We drove through the park but, alas, they had no room at the inn.  The nearest place would be a small campground at Echo Bay.  We had no idea what to expect and, oh boy, was it odd.  The park service clearly expends huge resources of labor and water to take care of non native palm trees and oleander bushes.  Additionally, the entire region has abandoned buildings, and huge sections of watersports infrastructure that are impossible now with the water so low.  It does not seem likely to come back anytime soon.
