ALONE in the World’s DARKEST place (Black Rock Desert)

- I ventured out solo to one of the darkest places on Planet Earth, Massacre Rim in the Black Rock Desert of Northern Nevada. It's one of just 17 dark sky sanctuaries in the world, with the potential of seeing the Milky Way in all its glory. But it wasn't without its mishaps and adventures getting there. This is the story.

I can't believe you don't have a million followers, you deserve this channel to grow so much!!! I've known you since your free ebook, around 2016 maybe? And you've been inspiring and encouraging my solo trips ever since. I love being able to see your adventures on CZcams, you're really good at it!!!! Sending you huge hugs ❤
Thanks so much! Hoping to grow here 🥰
@@Bemytravelmuse Hello, I am from Bali Island, btw I like American Woman, you strong and smart, and never scary even you just alone in the desert, I cant believe it, for me honestly if I stay in there with my self for alone in the night I am scary with that and thats real for me even I am a men.
I'm a Burning Man veteran... and that is amazing. But I also go to the Black Rock Desert when no one else is there and it is hard to describe... If you get out of your tent in the middle of the night and look up.. you will find yourself standing there for half an hour in wonder without knowing the time has past. And NEVER drive on brown playa... if you get stuck out there you will have to wait for someone to come by or walk the miles back to Gerlach (if you can). And be careful of the hot springs. You can get in some.. but if you get into TRIPLE HOT.. it will kill you. (Plenty of signage saying so). Worth the trip.
I made that trip, about 40 miles NNW of Gerlach, in 2019 on a moonless overnight. Laid on the windshield of my car most of the night. It was absolutely breathtaking, the Heavenly realm & the silence interrupted only by the sounds of coyotes & the occasional owl hooting.
I used to do a lot of solo travel when I was younger (and single!)
I LOVED it! I lived in Nevada for a while and there is so much to see and explore. Life is short and the world is big 😊
Yes it is!
Life is not short at all if you got Jesus then you will live forever.
Thank you for this...amazingly beautiful!
Thanks so much for watching!
The time it takes for the light from stars to be seen by us is mind boggling.
From where you were camped, you could have cut through Fly Canyon to High Rock Lake then out to CR 34 just passed Leadville Canyon. Good job on your return trip to back track off the wet playa to the Soldier Meadows Road. Like my comment on you IG post for this trip, there are many wonderful places to explore in the northwest corner of Nevada. Enjoy your travels, as having spent since 1972 enjoying where you traveled, I still have seen everything there is out there! Always be prepared is the best advice I would pass along, good tires, a come-along, plenty of water (saw your big jug!), and satellite communications or at least something like the Garmin Spot. I recently went the Zoleo route on my current assignment in Alaska, nice to provide tracking to someone in town and the ability to send text messages from anywhere with open sky... Explore on...
I was trying to figure out if I had to backtrack, but all accounts told me that road was terrible so I avoided it 🤷🏻♀️ I’d love to explore more of the area including the canyon, though!
Thank you!!!

Hello a big hug from Pocatello Idaho the content is getting better and better it's great I love the places you go say hi to your beautiful baby❤
Thanks so much for the kind words that’s awesome to hear!
@@Bemytravelmuse your welcome 😊💕
Thank you for sharing this incredible experience! Love your philosophy on being alone. (I trust you have a satellite phone or something, in case you run into trouble? Those muddy car tires in the middle of nowhere were stressful to watch! 😳)
Thank you for watching 💜 Yes I had a satellite phone!
@@Bemytravelmuse Ever considered Starlink? Seems like it would be quite a bit cheaper than a sat phone, and provides for super high speed internet, as well.
I’m not scared of the dark, but my anxiety would be going haywire if I went here solo! 😂
That sky view looks so worth it, though! 😍
So worth it!
I want to travel alone do you think its bad ? also you think it better do a tours to trips ? but I always fell nervous and scared too but watch this video it help me so much to have confidence to travel now . my friend say the same thing to me like I don't know language I get lost they think something go have to me.
