From the Sierra Nevada Ally's Matt Johanson - What if you could experience Yosemite free of traffic and crowds, as it was before automobiles roamed the country? This adventure will involve a horse-drawn carriage, rough dirt roads and no electronics or modern conveniences. But you get to travel with a like-minded relative to see “the most wonderful collection of waterfalls, precipitous cliffs, fantastic peaks and other scenic features anywhere in the world.”

The Gold Hill News: A 50-Year Retrospective
Of the Award Winningest Weekly in Nevada
June 15 and 16 at the Historic Bank of California
Gold Hill, Nevada

Commemorating the 50th anniversary of the rebirth of the celebrated Gold Hill News in June of 1974, the historic Bank of California on Main Street in Gold Hill, Nevada, will host a comprehensive, historical display and multimedia presentations June 15 – 16, 2024.

The exhibit will showcase the News’ richness of content through award-winning writing, editorials and letters, photography, contributors and columnists, art and humor. The art and graphics were provided by a number of local accomplished artists including Buckeye Blake, Steven Saylor, JoAnne Johnson, Jim McCormick, Art Herman, Steve Powell and Edw Martinez.

In portraying life on the Comstock 50 years ago this three-year span covered the festivals, music, art, events, dances, and celebrations of the time. The continuing saga of Joe Conforte and Mustang Ranch included the infamous shooting death of boxer Oscar Bonavena, for which the News had the scoop, story and interview with Conforte. The paper chronicled the resurrection of the Virginia & Truckee Railroad, from the first 116 feet of track to the arrival of a 1916 Baldwin steam locomotive. And all the day to day stories concerning the people, children, pets and businesses of the Comstock community, comprising Virginia City, Silver City, Dayton and of course, Gold Hill.

The Bank of California is located at 1490 Main Street in Gold Hill.

From the Sierra Nevada Ally. Let’s treat the current state of the news industry like the civic health crisis it is. This article makes the case for what it will truly take to re-imagine and transform local news. Organization is necessary: It gives groups involved in building a new civic information infrastructure more power to drive widespread change. Now is the time for us to build a coalition of media practitioners, pro-democracy advocates, funders, and government leaders to ensure that civic media, and the information it aims to share, is ubiquitous in every community in the United States.

More than 100 of the West’s most special places are protected by designation as “national monuments,” but that could change in the near future if giant outside corporations and their political allies have their way.
