We drove a few miles on the Success Loop with our Subaru Crosstrek AWD vehicle. We really needed a map on this so I would encourage you to get the BLM map before you go try this run. There was some fine white dust on the road that I'm still trying to clean from my car. Be sure to turn off to the right to check out Cave Lake just before the paving ends.

The Dixie Valley is a ghost town about 65 miles from Fallon, Nevada. Go 40 miles east to State Route 121 and drive up around 25 more miles. It was a thriving ranching district at one time until the Navy ran out the local residents and made it into an electronic warfare area for their "Top Gun" pilot program out of Fallon. A great place to go to get away from it all. Plenty of trees for shade, water is available everywhere from artisan springs and wells that are constantly flowing. Boondocking with an RV is a great way to go or just bring your tent and make camp at any of the abandoned home sites. If you have mountain bikes it is a great way to explore all of the old roads and ranches. Russian tanks and other military vehicles litter the area to make it appear as hostile territory for the Navy war training. No live ammunition is used so the public is allowed to roam freely at will with the occasional jet fighter flying over very low and very fast and the resulting sonic booms echo through the valley. Water water everywhere and so are the mosquitoes at night so bring your favorite repellent.

This just was set on fire by a vagrant and burnt to the ground after all the hard work and cost of being in process of renovation ☹️ I live in Dayton so I see the burnt remained every day. And Dayton IS Nevada’s oldest town!
