Small desert park outside Tonopah offering wide open skies, scrub foregrounds and distant mountain silhouettes — ideal for sunrise/sunset color and Milky Way work. Easily accessible by car with informal parking; no entry fee. Best visited at golden hour or after dark for astrophotography; avoid midday heat. Little infrastructure — bring water, sun protection and a tripod. Sparse local population means low light pollution and few crowds.
