Cathedral George State Park

Once you get out of Las Vegas and off the interstate the Nevada roads become pretty lonely. 85% of the land in Nevada is owned by the Federal government and as far as I could tell their doing nothing with it. We did have a scare right before we got here. The Sprinter lost power and I had a hard time getting up hills. The turbos quit. At least that's what I think happened. It's called limp home mode. We had several very long up hills and down hills and I was trying not to brake too much on the down hills so I used the engine brake to control my speed. I'm not sure that was the issue but I had a nice chat with the Google AI and she suggested a reboot. I think it worked. If the Turbos are fried so are we. This park has a number of trails, all of them are bikable. I will bike and we will hike some of them tomorrow.
