If you stop in Wells you should drive up to Angel Lake. Take the first exit to the right and right again and follow the signs. It's about 5 miles up the mountain. Also, if you stop in Elko, 50 miles before Wells, you should go into the museum - it's on the main drag (Idaho Street). There's a permanent collection of both Edward Weston and AA. It's very nice. I also have a show up there now - all photos of the Ruby Mountains which are just outside of Elko. Oh... you could also go up in Lamoille Canyon (into the Rubies) from Elko...20 min drive. we just got some snow - it's very pretty this time of year. If you eat in Elko go to the Star restaurant. Very good steaks. Have a pican at the bar - just one though.
Have fun.
