I made it to the ranch in 6 days, 9 hours. A world record, also, I can be pretty sure I am the first person ever to follow this route (see previous map, which is close except that it does not show cut off along railroad tracks): From Matich Drive (Rattlesnake Mountain) through Reno to Old Virginia Street, Lemmon Drive, Matterhorn Boulevard, Antelope Valley Road into BLM land, behind Dogskin Mountain to Dixie Lane, across the Fort Sage Mountains to Winnemucca Ranch Road, down a long hill to the Fish Springs Road to Sand Pass Road to the Bonham Hotsprings, the Smoke Creek Desert to the Cedarville Highway and Gerlach, then Jungo Road to Trego Hotsprings, Jungo Road to the Cholona turn, then along the railroad line to Sulfur and north on Jackson Creek Ranch Road past King Lear Peak to Leonard Creek Road and the rest is history! Rough calculations show 245 miles total, with an overal mph of 1.6 (including sleep, hot springs days, etc.). Unfortunately, I can't download pictures here so this is a bit brief, but I have many more stories and images, so stay tuned!

That's sooooo awesome, I'm glad you made it there safely. I can't wait to see you and Coco.
