A long northbound stretch of US‑385 through flat West Texas plains — ideal for minimalist road, big-sky and stormscape photos. Wide horizons produce dramatic sunrises/sunsets and excellent Milky Way viewing. Easy roadside access with paved shoulders and informal pullouts; no permits required. Best light at golden hour or after late‑afternoon storms; avoid midday heat. Watch traffic and park fully off the road.
