Hi. Just saw your adopt a highway sign heading towards Vegas on the 15 near Searchlight. I recognized the shape of the logo before I could read the words.

Does your sign have to be in this particular spot? It's on the big curve and doesn't directly face traffic. A better location would be a straight away closer to State Line where the visibility time would be greater.

Ive made several trips past it, not exactly looking for it but aware that it was nearby, still haven't seen it so maybe Alan's right.

There is a searchlight exit on 15 N.

There aught a be a law!
Do not pass this sign w/o stopping and taking a picture.
If alone, selfie will do.
Oh, anonymous and all that....

Don't stop there. It's dangerous. This is where cars speed up going downhill towards Stateline Primm.

Yes it's the Searchlight exit of the 15.

Probably the only reason I spotted it is because I like to see which companies have these signs. Zappos is the winner for the most. It's more fun than looking at license plates.

How long now until someone "picks it up" for a souvenir?
I can't believe what I believe.

I remember reading some article about somewhere maybe in utah? that they put up a mile marker 419.99 sign because people kept taking the mile marker 420 sign.
