Inyokern is in the high desert near where Hwy 395 & Hwy 14 merge together on the southern end of the eastern Sierra.
Northeast of Mojave about 45 miles or so.
If you have Google Earth -> 35°39'17.08"N 117°49'29.42"W
Near by, to the east about 7 miles, is Ridgecrest and Naval Air Weapons Station China Lake.
Inyokern get's it's name from being on the border between Inyo County and Kern County.
I have two good friends that live in the area.

Paved roads, just more needless government spending...

I pick up my mail in Santa Barbara, California, USA.
