Welcome home. The bluish greys of the mountains and sky complement the greenish browns of the sagebrush and the vast sandy playa.

Sun Tunnels West: Grouse Flyover

Learn more about this land:Enjoy spreading out over 40 acres here in the ghost town of Lucin, Utah. Conveniently located under two miles northwest of internationally renowned land art, along an intermittent stream north of the road, the area has abundant bird life and breathtaking natural beauty. Wake up for a sunrise at Dr Nancy Holt's Sun Tunnels, enjoy a day of bouldering and hiking on the Pilot Mountains, take Little Pigeon Rd to the end to enjoy the Salt Lake mud flats, come back to the Sun Tunnels for a sunset through the Tunnels over the mountains, turn all your lights off, and enjoy seeing the Milky Way over the crisp desert nights.

Nancy Holt's Sun Tunnels are human-scale in an incomprehensibly huge desert. The holes represent constellations, easily visible on a clear moonless night with our dark skies, and the mountains framed by the tunnels are where the sun rises, on the solstices.

At the end of December, the cold morning sun realigns with the Tunnels.

At the end of June, the hot desert night greets the other two Tunnels.

A lot of the desert has been driven over, and a lot of sagebrush has been choked out by cheatgrass. Go gently around the fifty year old art.

Montello Camp GFP

Camp on 10 acres in Montello, Nevada with your RV or tent. 

The bar, food, and gas are 17 minutes away. No water or power but cell service is good and again, town is super close by. You could walk if you needed to. Decent access via dirt road. There’s an RV park and motel close by if you run into trouble. Have fun fishing, skiing, biking, and exploring on high desert terrain! Close to Dake Reservoir & Dam, Bald Eagle Mountain, Nevada’s Rocky Butte, Pilot Peak, Murdock Mountain, and Toano Range. You can gamble at the bar, play pool, or sing karaoke if you go with a group. Get a hold of me if you want to explore together or need a guide (again on Air BnB, my FB messenger is too crowded). Host events; throw a party. Do whatever to your heart’s content as long as you respect the far away neighbors and the land.
