Canyons, Cutoffs and Hot Springs
Explore the California Trail near Elko, Nevada
by Larry Hyslop and Charles Greenhaw
This book follows the California Trail past trail intersections with the Secret Pass Trail, Hastings Cutoff and Greenhorn Cutoff. The trail meanders along a growing Humboldt River through the narrow confines of Carlin Canyon. This book follows the end of the Hasting’s Cutoff from Overland Pass, having finally bypassed the Ruby Mountains, to finally emerge into the Humboldt River Valley. Along the way, historian Charles Greenhaw describes the Shoshone villages along Huntington Creek, fur trapper/explorer brigades crossing Secret Pass and the amazement of emigrants at the boiling water of Elko Hot Hole. Maps and route descriptions help historical time travelers visit sites along both the California Trail and Hastings Cutoff. (Published by Gray Jay Press.)
