An old, unused stone park office sits across the road from the Emigrant rest stop

✔ XXS - tiny (244 x 215)
✔ XS - extra small (367 x 324)
✔ S - small (489 x 432)
✔ Original (600 x 529)

The old park building isn't being used anymore, but there is still a functional pay phone out front--a nice touch since cell phones don't usually work out here.

Out front, a sign warns drivers of the long grade from here down to Stovepipe Wells that I trudged up early yesterday evening.

I choose to ride up Wildrose Road today instead of heading up Highway 190 to Towne's Pass
