I was in Death Valley a few weeks ago and I was surprised to find it wasn't all that big, or all that isolated. Heck, most of it is within 100 miles of Las Vegas (and more importantly, it's all within about 70 miles of the McDonald's in Pahrump NV on one side and Lone Pine CA on the other).
(I guess coming from Australia I might have different standards of "big" and "isolated" though.)
- salvadors 17y agoSo what's the furthest point from a McDonald's in Australia, then? :)
- antipaganda 17y agoThat would probably be around the middle of Western Australia, since there's a Macka's in Alice Springs that throws out the absolute middle of the country as a candidate. Also, if you look at a road map, that spot in the middle of WA is the furthest from major ("interstate") highways. edit: http://mcdonalds.com.au/find-us/restaurant http://mcdonalds.com.au/find-us/restaurant shows us that my off-the-cuff guess was largely correct. Zooming in on their handy map even gives us a nice rough set of directions: go along the Gary Highway until you reach the turnoff for the David Carnegie Road, and you will be at the least McColonised place in Australia.
