Advice for trip from Hwy 395 to Berlin Icthyosaur State Park in Nevada

[gsteele]

I’m considering a trip to Berlin Icthyosaur State Park in Nevada. Anybody know what the route between Tioga pass/395 and Hawthorne Nevada is like? I have a 2016 90D with 19s, full charge is about 277 these days.

You should be able to make it easy from Groveland to Hawthorne via Tioga Pass. US395 north from Lee Vining, then California 127/NV359 NE to Hawthorne.

All roads are well maintained. You do climb a little heading out of California, but then descend into Hawthorne. I have driven this road a number of times in ICE years ago.

EVTripplanner says that I can make it from Fish Camp to Hawthorne in my old S85 with about 15% remaining in the battery.

I would not sweat that leg. It is to and from the park near Berlin NV that might be tricky.
