- Traveling America's Loneliest Road: A Geologic
and Natural History Tour through Nevada along U.S. Highway 50
by Joseph V. Tingley, et al
- Highway 50 crosses the heart of Nevada. It follows sections
of trail first marked by John C. Fremont in 1845-1846 and early
government surveyors in 1859. Pony Express riders raced over
parts of the route in 1860, and the Lincoln Highway, the nation's
first transcontinental highway, came this way in 1913.
