We took the adventursome back way to the star party site. Definitely _not a short cut_! Exiting I10 @ Red Rock, meandering through a ghost town, across the Santa Cruz river when it was shallow and around it when it wasn't, looking for roads that our map only made up, we finally made it to the star party with plenty of time to win a Rubick's Cube.
