Greeley Crossing

Down in the drainage, where the road crosses the North Fork of the Little Humboldt River, which is emerging from the canyon to the left. In extreme northern Nevada, maybe 20 miles from the Oregon line. As far as I've been able to determine, this was an old stage route, probably from Boise, Idaho to connect to the transcontinental railroad at Winnemucca, Nevada. It's now a graded (not paved!) county road. The white spot just to the right of the canyon mouth is the roof of an abandoned shed. The insert was taken from below the canyon, looking up. There was even running water this early in the season!
