Visit the Panaca Market, “conveniently located in the middle of nowhere.” Good selection of fresh meats, baked goods and reasonable prices. The restrooms are clean, too.

Also, take a moment to appreciate the local history. According to Nevada Historical Marker 39: “Southern Nevada’s first permanent settlement and perhaps one of its most unique was settled as a Mormon colony by Francis C. Lee and others in 1864…. Originally located in Washington County, Utah, Panaca became a portion of Nevada by an act of Congress, dated May 5, 1866. As the boundary was not then surveyed, a dispute arose over taxes levied by Lincoln County, Nevada. Only after a long period of bitter litigation was the matter settled in favor of the Panaca citizenry on December 4, 1871.”
