Why Nevada, the most public state in the country, rewards a self-reliant vehicle

No state has a larger share of federal land than Nevada. The Congressional Research Service counts 56.1 million federal acres here, 79.8 percent of the state and the top of its table. The Bureau of Land Management alone holds 47.2 million of them, and says most of that ground is open to free dispersed camping.
