First meeting place.  Meet at 7:15 at Salomon Ct. west of Vista Blvd., north of I-80 .  This is the first stop light north of the freeway entrance, turn right on Salomon Ct.  Anyone wishing to carpool can leave their cars here.  We plan on leaving at 7:30.

Second meeting place. Meet at 8:45 at the Fallon Nugget parking lot on SW corner of Maine Street and Highway 50 (this is called Williams Ave. in Fallon) in downtown Fallon.  We will leave here at 9:00.  Destination is the sand dunes north on Fallon on highway 95.  After the dunes we will proceed north and then west through the Hot Springs Mts.  This part will be about 15 miles on dirt roads, some of which are two-track.  A high clearance vehicle is necessary for this part but 4-wheel drive is not.  Here we will see 4 Nevada endemics, Penstemon arenarius, Astragalus porrectus, A. lentiginosus var. kennedyi, and Eriogonum lemmonii.  We will also look for the endemic Atriplex phyllostegia.  Round trip through the Hot Springs Mts. totals about 160 miles from Reno.  Bring lunch, hat, water, sun block, and bug spray.  On 12 May the areas near Fallon were mosquito city.
