Heading up Highway 190 toward Emigrant Campground from Stovepipe Wells

I figure that Emigrant camp must be somewhere over there on the fan, since it's just ten miles away.

I figure that it should be a fairly easy, but slow ride across the fan, a lot like the first ten miles from Baker up Kelbaker Road, which I've ridden several times during past bicycle camping in Mojave National Preserve.
