80 unaccustomed to males in the buff.

 

Only guessing based on your clue and recent itinerary.


Scotties Castle?


Haven't been there in at least 20.


And the Adonis is at Mad Greek in Baker.

 

Yep that's the spot Bill!

 

Mad Greek indeedy.

 

Great food and open 24/7! Pastry is delicious too.

 

Mad Greek is good, and usually packed when we've been around there. I'm pretty sure I have done a touch and go there more times than actually eating.


Great time of the year to visit DV.

 

Finally one I knew the answer to, but you beat me to it, Scotty's Castle.

Jim

 

Ok Jim, here's one for ya. Something about lowest...

 

Lowest point in North America? Which rumor has it is only miles from the highest point in North America.

Jim

 

North America, no, Continental US, yes.

One of my favorite spots is straight up that mountain.

 

Somewhere up on the side of that mountain is a little sign that says "Sea Level". I can't make it out in Sean's photo, but it's there.

Marc, how do you get up to the top of that mountain? Hike?

I'd bet the view is spectacular from up there, but I'm in no shape any more to make THAT trek. Walking out on to the flat is about all I can accomplish nowadays.

Jim, Badwater and Mt. Whitney are, yes, mere miles apart (about eighty), but Denali (McKinley), in Alaska, is North America's highest point. There is no surface land in Alaska that's below sea level, either.

One more place to guess- we didn't stop, but will the next time I pass thru. Didn't see any 'grass houses'.


How can 'transportation costs' be so high, maybe transported by Ox cart?

 

Just a green one.

 

just checked with Google maps about the location of Scotty's Castle and it is interesting that it is due east of here about 100 miles. Yet, if I want to go there, I have to drive north or south as there are no roads that go over the mountains here.

Pop, yeah, my bad, I should have said Continental US< I forgot about Mc Kinley in Alaska,
