“Here is a longer video showing the paved alternative from Austin, NV to Middlegate, NV. After days of nothing but gravel, tough two-track, some hike-a-bike sections, and dusty roads, booking it along a great stretch of pavement is actually really nice. Especially when you have a total of 5 cars pass you for the entire 65 miles!”
