Some embrace the new season with the new month, an Some embrace the new season with the new month, and others are still squeezing every drop of sunshine from Summer. We think both sides just wanna have fun. 

The “ber” months hold so much to look forward to in Carson City and we plan to keep you up to date and in the know on all of it. 

Historically, the changing of the weather leads to some iconic neon sunsets around here. Catch one from a local trail or over cocktails from a patio down town. 

It’s as though the summer sun sets and Carson City shines a little brighter! Stick around for tips on planning your Visit or even just to enjoy it vicariously from afar. 

Which “ber” month are you looking forward to most? ☕️🍂☃️

DRIVEN—the world’s largest railroad spike—has landed in Black Rock City. At 69 feet long, its scale is a nod to the completion of the Transcontinental Railroad in 1869.

Go find it. Take it in. Get it dusty.

Built by Carson City’s own Seth Johnson. Check the art map for the exact spot before you head out.

When the dust settles, DRIVEN will return home to the Nevada State Railroad Museum in Carson City, where you can experience it long after the Man burns.

Made possible by Visit Carson City, the @dustandwondertrail and @travelnevada @nvsrmcc 

See you in the dust. 🔥
