<h2>Loneliest American Highway</h2>
<p>Firstly US Route 50 is unofficially called the Loneliest American Highway. Join me for the trip in Loneliest-American-Highway-US-50-Bob Davis Podcast 1161.</p>
<h2>Best American Highway</h2>
<p>But Route 50 turns out to be one of the best road trips you can take.</p>
<h2>Mega Road Trip California</h2>
<p>With this in mind as I ended my mega road trip up the California coast&#8230;</p>
<h2>Sacramento To The East Coast</h2>
<p>I headed for Sacramento as soon as I wrapped up on the Pacific Coast Highway.</p>

<h2>US 50 Is Different</h2>
<p>However US Route 50 is something altogether different.</p>
<h2>Mountains To Deserts</h2>
<p>That is to say we start in the mountains and deserts of Eastern California.</p>
<h2>Free Camping</h2>
<p>In particular in these mountains I encountered my first &#8216;free&#8217; campsite.</p>
<p>In contrast with the bracing breezes on the West Coast my first campground was a thriving babbling brook.</p>
<p>Most importantly I arrived too early in the year for the campground to be open.</p>
<p>But the gate was down and other people were camping.</p>
<p>Therefore I spent a great first night at the side of the brook.</p>
<p>Subsequently on into the California and Nevada deserts.</p>
<h2>Nothing Like A Two Lane Highway For Freedom</h2>
<p>Above all I can say there is little more in this life more therapeutic than a deserted two lane highway stretching into infinity.</p>
<h2>Open Road</h2>
<p>In other words if what you seek is the open road US 50 has it in spades.</p>
<h2>Mountains To Valleys</h2>
<p>Equally important are the shifts from mountains to valleys and deserts as we travel this route.</p>
<h2>Life Pressure</h2>
<p>Certainly these days we all wonder what will happen next.</p>
<h2>Corporate Grind</h2>
<p>Even more the pressures of day to day life and corporate life are heavy for many.</p>
<h2>Small Town Antidote</h2>
<p>I took a closer look at many small towns along the way with this purpose in mind</p>
<h2>What Comes Next</h2>
<p>In other words if you didn&#8217;t do what you&#8217;re doing now how would you do whatever comes next</p>
<h2>Small Town Life</h2>
<p>As an illustration of that question small towns like Ely, Nevada and Delta Colorado help the traveler imagine what life would be like if things were a little different.</p>
<h2>Colorado Mountains and Continental Divide</h2>
<p>Finally moving into the Colorado Mountains including crossing the Continental Divide at Mammoth Mountain.</p>
<h2>Plains</h2>
<p>Then we moved straightaway into the plains of Eastern Colorado and Western Kansas.</p>
<h2>National Parks and Truck Stop Camping</h2>
<p>From time to time camping at more free campgrounds, national parks like The Great Basin and Black Canyon, and an occasional Truck Stop.</p>
<h2>Meditating On History</h2>
<p>In addition to the meditation of driving there&#8217;s a lot of history in this region of the country.</p>
<h2>Farming Ranching Mining</h2>
<p>Especially ending in Fort Dodge Kansas, I am reminded of the ranching history of the plains as well as the mining, pioneer and Native American history of Colorado, Nevada and California.</p>
<h2>Ancient People</h2>
<p>To this end there are artifacts like the Petroglyphs in Nevada where people lived and thrived more than ten thousand years ago.</p>
<h2>Full Experience</h2>
<p>To sum up all of this is waiting to be experienced on supposedly the loneliest highway in the United States.</p>
<p>But I think Route 50 is one of the best highways.</p>
