Nevada's Historic Treasures

Nevada’s landscape preserves a diverse timeline, from the 225-million-year-old Triassic fossils at the Ichthyosaur Shelter to the 19th-century boomtown ruins of Rhyolite. This collection highlights the state's industrial and cultural evolution, featuring the remarkably intact Nevada Northern Railway in Ely, prehistoric petroglyphs in Keyhole Canyon, and the remnants of Cold War-era nuclear testing at the Project Faultless site. These sites reveal the lives of early indigenous inhabitants, pioneer settlers, and the miners who shaped the Silver State.
