HUMBOLDT COUNTY

In the northeastern corner of Nevada is Humboldt County, one of the most isolated and unspoiled areas in the state. Although I-80 and US 95 cross the county, there are few other major roads making access to much of the county difficult without four-wheel drive. Only one known motion picture was filmed here. Along with director Henry King, stars Vilma Banky, Ronald Coleman and Gary Cooper braved the inhospitable desert to capture the manificent scenery on film.
