The Road to Rachel

After several days in Las Vegas and one amazing night and day shooting in Boulder, we set out for Rachel, the small Nevada Town where we would shoot most of the movie. 
Braving the treacherous mountain roads and the driving antics of our Scottish mad Max plus all the creatures of the night (including near invisible giant cows) and fighting the urge to rip out our sat nav (which was set to chinese for most of the start of our journey) and shoot it to pieces, we finally reached our destination just after midnight and settled down for a beer with our good buddies Ryan & Ken at the Little Al'e'Inn.  After a truly freezing night (everyone forgot/was too tired/drunk to turn on the heating) we rose bright and early for the first shooting day of the Rachel Locations. 

Expecting the desert sun, we were in for a shock and a very swift lesson in the way the weather can change pretty fast when you are 5000 feet up...
