THIS IS HEADED SOUTH FROM THE CARP ELGIN INTERSECTION.....THIS DEAD ENDS IN ABOUT FIVE MILES
HERE ARE THE RUINS OF WHAT I BELIEVE TO BE A DINNER AND A MOTOR COURT. I FOUND PIECES OF
FINE CHINA THAT WOULD OF SUGGESTED A UPPER SCALE RESTUARANT. THE BUILDING ITSELF WAS NOT MADE OF LOCAL MATERIALS
LIKE SO MANY OF THE OTHER RUINS OF THIS REGION.....THERE ARE TRACES OF SIMON BRICKS, PORCELINE TILES. MUST OF BEEN A NICE PLACE BACK IN THE 30'S AND 40'S.......PARANORMALS BEWARE!!! THIS IS A HOT SPOT

THIS PART OF U.S. 91 IS OFF OF SR170/RIVERSIDE RD.APPROX 13 MILES SOUTH OF MESQUITE.. IF YOU LOOK CLOSELY, YOU CAN SEE THE I-15 IN THE BACKGROUND

LOOKING SOUTH ON U.S. 91.....SR 170 IS ALSO AN ORIGINAL ALIGNMENT OF U.S. 91

ACCORDING TO U.S. ROAD MAPS. THIS PART OF U.S. 91 HAS BEEN BYPASSED SINCE 1955

LARGE PARTS OF THE ROAD HAS BEEN WASHED OUT. IT IS STILL PASSABLE THOUGH. JUST WITH CAUTION
