Looks more like Utah to me. I like that Vanagon route through Lakeville to that junction .. then turn right to go down to Winnemuca on I-80. If I'm going to Zion or North Rim of the Grand Canyon ...or NM .. I only goon I-80 for about 35 miles or so ..then pick up ..forget the hwy #... the road that goes diagonally across Nevada to near St. George.. then I only do 20 miles on that interstate and turn into Zion ..coming out the south side straight north of North Rim. I can drive from here in So. Oregon clear to Taos NM and only be on intestates twice, for a total of about 40minutes. Gorgeous vanagon country - all that territory ! it's super empty east of Lakeville all right. And coldthis time of year.
