You can reach the Nelson Hills riding area by traveling Southwest of Las Vegas on Highway 93/95 toward Boulder City. Just past Railroad Pass, turn south toward Searchlight on Highway 95. Go about 8 miles, you will see a road going left toward the town of Nelson. If you turn left there, a good portion of the area on your right is open BLM and you will see riding trails and dirt roads taking off all over. About four miles in from the freeway, you'll see the power lines crossing the road. That's where the access road to the race area heads in. It was well marked with bright pink arrows on race day, so you can't hardly miss it.

• Nelson Hills - located approximately 17 miles south of Las Vegas on Highway 95, turn left at Highway 165, drive approximately three miles, then south on powerline road one half mile.

I parked just off Rt 165 outside the gate, I only did day rides here then drove back to Jean Roach Dry Lake to spend the night.

This was a 86 mile ride mostly North towards Bolder.
