Truckee Trail - River Crossings

"We crossed the river 3 times ... which has become almost a perfect torrent ... our men have had all kinds of sport at the crossings, the water sometimes taking them off their feet and rolling them over like a barrel." - James Godfrey, Aug 7, 1849

Nevada Historical Landmark 62 commemorates the Truckee River.
