Driving Directions to Peace Camp:
Take Hwy 95 North out of Las Vegas. 65 miles out of
town you will see the Mercury exit (after Indian Springs
and Cactus Springs). Take the Mercury exit, then,
as soon as you can, make a U-turn and drive under
the freeway, to the south (if you don't make the U-turn,
you will instead come to the legal boundary of the
Nevada Test Site).
