How can you tell what desination the dry lake bed falls? There are some roads all around the edges of that dry lake bed. And some into the flats, but not far.
If it is closed to wheeled or just motorized ? Was thinking of one of those beach sailers, 3 wheeled sailing rigs.
A look with google shows what could be a string of craters.

OK found it and about half of the dry lake is private owned but looks like for detailed boarders the field office needs to be visited to get local maps. Maps can be also purchased from map companies (high $ ) of the whole state NV.
Now the question is was that really the spot they were in? Only way for sure is to Google at an angle an compare the shows horizon to the google horizon and match them up.
A lot of work.
