I'm one of those kooky desert people. I love the Black Rock Desert, and have been studying it to move there shortly. It's near Reno, Nevada, too, so I can gamble!
Neat! What's there to do there?  Nevada isan interesting place.
Well, it's a desert, so it's a sort of arid region, and it's made up of these cool lava beds/alkali flats. It's found in the Black Rock Desert-High Rock Canyon Emigrant Trails National Conservation, so it's a playa that has a lot of historic trails. So, it's a great place to enjoy nature.
Wow! Do you know how long this area has been preserved? It's nice there are trails for tourists to enjoy!
Since 2000, through the Black Rock Desert–High Rock Canyon Emigrant Trails National Conservation Area Act of 2000. But what should be mentioned is how it hosts the famous Burning Man festival every year, which is another activity/big gathering.
