    INFORMATIONAL TOPIC MAY 8, 2014 Nevada State History (in a nutshell) Although Spain claimed the Nevada region during the 1500s, no Timeline exploration occurred until the early 1800s. Native Americans living there at that time included the Paiute, Shoshone, and 1821 —Mexico gains control of Nevada Washoe tribes. 1859 —Thousands moved to Nevada as gold was discovered During the 1820s, trappers from the Hudson Bay Company in Virginia City explored the Humboldt River. Jedediah Smith traveled across 1861 —The Nevada Territory is created the Las Vegas valley and William Wolfskill blazed the Old Spanish Trail into California. Complete exploration of Nevada 1864 —Nevada becomes the 36 th state occurred during the 1840s; John C. Frémont explored and charted the Great Basin and Sierra Nevada. 1907 —The Newlands Irrigation Project is completed At the end of the Mexican -American War (1846-1848), the 1936 —Hoover Dam is completed southwest came under U.S. control. In 1850, the Utah Territory, that included Nevada, was established. Some of the first settlers came to Nevada during this time. Genoa was established by Mormon pioneers and became a trading post for those traveling to California. Some non-Mormons came to Carson Valley. They did not want to be part of the Utah Territory that was ruled by a Mormon leader. Without Congressional approval they established their own territorial government. In 1859, ore was discovered near what is now Virginia City and thousands came in search of gold and silver. With sufficient population in 1861, Congress could now create the Nevada Territory. Nevada did not have a large enough population to become a state during the Civil War (1861-1865).

  • Before It Was a Park
    BEFORE IT WAS A PARK Lake Tahoe Nevada State Park and its Foundations in Comstock History Nevada Division of State Parks In honor of Nevada’s 150th anniversary 1864 to 2014 By Jay Howard, LTNSP 2014, revised 2017 A State Made by Mining Ron James wrote in his Comstock history novel The Roar and the Silence, “It was the longest telegraph ever sent, but Nevadan’s did not intend to do things in a small way. With the paperwork in order, Lincoln signed Nevada into statehood on October 31st 1864, just a few days before the November presidential election. Nevada sent back a thank-you in the form of three electoral votes for the president’s reelection.” Nevadan’s were proud of their pro-Union stance during the Civil War. Needed by the United States both politically and economically, the state of Nevada was said to have been ‘Battle Born’. Though we understand this to refer to the battles that had been raging in the east since 1861, Nevada was itself a relatively peaceful territory, other than the occasional skirmishes with Native Americans, and the more serious Pyramid Lake War of 1860. Nevadan’s never saw any fighting with Confederate forces, but certainly had their share of fistfights between Unionists and Copperheads. The latter usually losing the argument. During one incident, the Stars and Bars of the Confederacy was raised over a building in Virginia City, which led to a serious altercation between townspeople. Newspapers later reported that Unionists emerged bloody, but victorious. Early in the Civil War there was some concern that Nevada could be taken by the Confederacy, but these fears were never realized.

  • Quaternary Fault and Fold Database of the United States
    Jump to Navigation Quaternary Fault and Fold Database of the United States As of January 12, 2017, the USGS maintains a limited number of metadata fields that characterize the Quaternary faults and folds of the United States. For the most up-to-date information, please refer to the interactive fault map. Lake Range fault zone (Class A) No. 1607 Last Review Date: 2016-03-03 citation for this record: Sawyer, T.L., Haller, K.M., and Adams, K., compilers, 2016, Fault number 1607, Lake Range fault zone, in Quaternary fault and fold database of the United States: U.S. Geological Survey website, https://earthquakes.usgs.gov/hazards/qfaults, accessed 12/14/2020 02:29 PM. Synopsis This discontinuous zone of normal faults bounds the west front of the Fox Range and Lake Range from Buckbrush Spring southward along and apparently beneath Pyramid Lake to east of Anaho Island, and locally traverses piedmont slope along the east side of the Pyramid Lake basin. Both the Lake Range and Fox Range are east-tilted blocks that border sedimentary basins on their west sides. The range-front faults are expressed as abrupt west-facing range fronts and juxtapose late Quaternary piedmont- slope deposits against bedrock. Short piedmont faults are marked by scarps on late Quaternary piedmont-slope deposits east of Sheep Pass in the Lake Range and at mouth of Hell's Kitchen Canyon, where the fault projects southward beneath Pyramid Lake. Regional geologic mapping and reconnaissance photogeologic mapping are the sources of data. Trench investigations and detailed studies of scarp morphology have not been conducted.
