Checking out this highway on Google Earth indicates there isn't a lot of civilization along it! What's the cell coverage like along it?
As for an overnight stop on this ride (it's a 36 hour run), I looked at both Wells and Ely. Wells looks very interesting, but I don't think I'll have time for a night in this town.

No other riding will be done for those 36 hours. So I'll plan for Ely.
BTW AZ TOM, nice looking Voyageur.
