They made the valley it’s in a national monument to prevent the yuca mountain nuclear storage from being readable:
So:’
“City,” because it was now part of the national monument, would have to admit public visitors.’

- hedora 4y agoI was pretty excited to go, then saw this at the end of the article: > Visitors will also need to get themselves to Alamo, Nev., a nearish town. They’ll then be picked up, allowed to roam “City” for a few hours and, because there are no lights on the road and no cellphone service, they will be driven back before dark, meaning they won’t get to see the sun rise and set, prime hours. The "no lights" thing is a pretty lame excuse. It sounds like an exercise in minimum compliance with the order to open it to the public.
