I enjoy passing through the badlands between Tecopa Hot Springs and Shoshone.

My Gold Valley Road turn-off toward the west is just half a mile beyond this point, yet I still can't see it.

This photo shows Deadman Pass Road rising up over the horizon toward the east from Greenwater Valley Road.

A woman in a small pick-up truck passes me in this area, the only vehicle that I've seen on Greenwater Valley Road.
