Lake Tahoe for sure, we stayed there the night after, fantastic place. Drove down the Owens Valley to Mojave thereafter.

Re David Viewing's post, forced landings are frequent, but you must be prepared that fatalties are also an occasional fact at Reno. We watched Gary Levitz's "Learstang" break up during a race, and seeing the wreckage disappear end over end behind a ridge rates amongst my saddest life memories. But please don't let it put you off...
