This property is not far from the Utah/Nevada border South of Lucin and about 5 miles West of the Sun Tunnels. To arrive at the property you take Hwy 30 and turn South onto Pilot Mountain Road. About 7 miles you come on Coal Bank Springs Road and follow that for about 2.5 miles. The property is about .25 miles south of Coal Bank Springs Road. There is no road directly to the property but the topography of the area is gentle rolling hills so a 4wd vehicle should be able to drive right up to the property. Along Pilot Mountain Road you see several landmarks, including the Transcontinental Railroad Line, Lucin Pond, and the Sun Tunnels are about 5 miles East of the property. Vegetation on the property includes Sagebrush, Prairie Grass, Wildflowers and Cactus. In the area I have seen rabbits, squirrel, lizards, Elk, Antelope and Deer. The property has great views of the Mountains to the East and the Salt Flats to the south. There are some rock outcroppings on the property. Soil is mostly sandy. There are no visible structures close to the property. There was a farm just north of the Sun Tunnels. The Sun Tunnels is a large - scale art installation. It consists of 4 large concrete cylinders, arranged on the desert floor in a cross pattern, that align with the sunrise and sunset on the summer and winter solstices. In addition to the solar framing, each of the cylinders has smaller holes representing the Draco, Perseus, Columba, and Capricorn constellations. The four concrete tubes act as viewfinders framing precise images which bring the vast space of the desert back to human scale. This would be a great property for someone who wants to be close to the mountains for recreation or wants to live off grid.
