Baker Township

We thoroughly enjoyed our time in Moab, and the weather could not have been better for our visit. Wish we had one more day, because we never spent anytime in the town even though we were parked at an RV location that was well placed for walking on foot to explore. Hope to be back again some day.

Got started pretty early about 8 or 8:30, which is good for us. Quick stop at Starbucks at the grocery store right next to the campground. Normally like going to local shops, but in our RV with the jeep, easier to get into a grocery store parking lot!

This part of I-70 is still scenic, but much more high plateau/ desert (dry) looking than the portion we drove coming into Moab. Left 70 as it starts dropping south and drove 50 heading west into Nevada. Really spent the whole day driving and stopped at the state line.

Our hope was to stay close to Baker, Nevada (state line) and have a brief visit to Great Basin Natl Park. We found this nice cafe/store/casino/motel/RV park right on the state line. Very clean, pretty spartan, but they offered full hook ups, restrooms, showers and laundry room for $28 a night. We were happy to take it! We really like having electives power on these colder nights. The RV heater is sort of noisy compared to our portable oil heater!Read more
