Ugh! 4 new pistons & cylinders + bearings & rods + crank shaft. Caught up on mail, bought groceries, called MVZ.

The road crosses railroad tracks & passes a bar & then reaches an unmarked junction. The left road is the correct one. Many unmarked lots follow but the critical ones (turns) are usually marked. The (4 miles) road continues past the campground to Danielsville (abandoned Danielsville. mining town) & 3 miles beyond reaches a lot with a trail to Racetrack Lake. Signs read as follows:
