Nevada Sailing Stones
Bonnie Claire Playa
Nye County
Nevada

The sailing stones of Bonnie Claire Playa in Nevada are a natural phenomenon that has captivated observers for years. Scientists believe the movement is caused by a rare combination of rain, freezing temperatures, and wind, which creates a slick layer of ice that allows the stones to drift across the surface. Yet, standing in the vast, barren expanse of Bonnie Claire it’s easy to feel like something almost otherworldly is taking place—like the stones are alive, silently wandering in the desert under the open sky.
