Geography
Most of Nevada lies within the Great Basin The alkali sinks and arid stretches clothed with sagebrush and creosote bush typify Nevada's landscape. Its mountain chains generally run north and south, further segmenting the state. On the California border stand the lofty Sierra Nevada [snowy range]. In the driest state in the nation, days and nights are generally clear. The mean elevation is c.5,500 ft (1,676 m). In the north and west winters reach extreme cold, while in parts of the south the summers approach ovenlike heat. Carson City is the capital; Las Vegas is the largest city, and Reno the second largest. Outside the cities, visitors are attracted to Hoover Dam and Lake Mead, with its facilities for fishing, swimming, and boating; Lake Tahoe and Death Valley National Park, both on the California line; Lehman Caves National Monument; Great Basin National Park; and restored mining ghost towns like Virginia City.

    Click to return to: Newton Crumley Corner of "A" Street and Juniper Elko, Elko County, Nevada I was at the museum the other day and one of the gang asked me what subject I was digging into today. I said " George Russell , but I was only digging a shallow hole." This page is also a bit shallow. It does not do justice to the man. But it is a start.

    Remembering 11 people who made a difference in Nevada

    By Richard Moreno
    Newton H. Crumley
    In 1941, Newt Crumley forever changed the way casinos did business in Nevada. Prior to that time, most casinos believed that their customers came for one thing - to gamble.
    However, Crumley, owner of the Commercial Hotel in Elko, recognized that gamblers couldn't possibly spend all their time at the tables and decided to offer something else - big-name entertainment.
    Starting on April 26, bandleader Ted Lewis, a popular radio star of the 1930s and '40s, performed for a week at the Commercial. The move was bold - Lewis earned $12,000 for the gig - but it paid off with standing-room-only crowds and more gamblers in Crumley's casino.
