This is in my backyard. I live in Carson City, you did a good job covering the town site. You would not believe how large the "Candy Dance" has gotten over the years, but it keeps the town afloat! Thanks Jeff!
My wife and I will be staying in Genoa in two weeks. Thanks for the great video. We just discovered your RUclips channel and look forward to watching all the videos eventually. Keep up the good workvand fascinating videos
Thanks and welcome to our channel. I also did a video on the Genoa cemetery. Lots of historical people buried there! I’m honored by your comments! Have fun in Genoa. David Walley’s Hot Springs?
Enthralling just looking at all that history in that town. What makes Chanel’s like this so good is the video quality these days. You can nearly reach out and touch things. Thanks heaps from Down Under.
Any town that had Snowshoe Thompson and Hank Monk living there at the same time had to be an interesting place. I'm looking forward to part 2. As always, thanks for sharing your adventures.
I lived in South Lake Tahoe and visited Genoa many times. I actually bought an 1880’s freight wagon from an antique dealer there. It was a chore hauling it over that mountain!
lived there in late 70's, a real change from Santa Barbara, there since late 60's, (out of Army) grew up in Bakersfield, on farms, with many Basque friends. Love Genoa, for this reason, it was rural with Tahoe over the hill 24 hrs a day! Left in Fall of 78 when high interests killed construction. Tho have returned to Tahoe a number of times never went back to Genoa until 2018. As with everywhere things change, growth. Gardnerville/Minden with chain stores etc, almost unrecognizable, an old dream of somehow one day returning there to live out rest of life was shattered! Oh well, it's progress! Recall watching the reinactments of the Pony Express and watching the shadow rise on the Eastern slopes as the sun set. Also seeing on #395 just North a bit in a pasture the worlds's largest bull! it was huge!!! Too, the state's oldest bar is haunted! Thanx for the video! Truly enjoyed watching!
Kessler Montijo ...Basque, huh? I've got Basque family, by marriage, a bunch of me actually, livin in and around Homedale, Idaho (near Boise)...Two things about the Basque people one should know when visiting them: be prepared to eat well, and eat A LOT...and never call a person from Basque descent a Spaniard, as they are not Spanish, they are BASQUE, and they're proud of it, which I respect immensely....
I love history it started when I was young and found the history of Ames and the surrounding towns then as I moved around I did history of each place I lived my mom and dad's family where from ames thought I was born in Topeka KS and have done a history about there I have lived in MO. And Ark I love history it was my Hobbie and my history teach said I was one of his best students you Two I love watching you thank you for sharing and also you make feel better that I am not the only one that finds going to cemeteries to find history and doing research glad I can now say I am not odd for doing what I love and to watch fellow history buffs
No idea why RUclips recommended this video, but I enjoyed it very much. I stayed there about 8 years ago. Loved every minute. Looking forward to next weeks show. The jail cell is as creepy as it gets.
Welcome! We hope you will subscribe! This morning we posted part 2 of this series on Genoa, that where we visit the Genoa cemetery! Did you catch that one as well?
I like Genoa! It's a kicker of a place. My dad and I always go around there together when in the area. We both love old towns, old buildings and cars (he paints them and was a well-known artist in the Tahoe-Truckee area before he moved to another part of the U.S.) as well as cemeteries. My mother, aunt and uncle live close-by in Gardnerville. I really appreciate you two touring these places which I miss and am so fond of!
Jeff, the first thing I noticed or maybe my old eyes is that the quality of your video was absolutely spectacular ! For my comment on Genoa, I have never heard of it but what a neat historical part of the old west. After viewing, I added it to my bucket list. That is the best compliment I can give you sir !
Thanks. If you’re watching at the 1080p 60 frames per second mode (which you can set) the clarity is amazing. I shoot in 2.7K video so it’s going to look great! Thanks for telling me! I love your comment!
Today I learned that the Pony Express only lasted 18 months... I honestly had no idea. I thought it was in operation much longer. Thank you for doing these videos. I love history and love learning about our Country's past. It's important that we document and remember the past, even if it's ugly. It helps us move forward without making the same mistakes our forefathers made.
Next door to the Pink House is the Trimmer family home. I was visiting Arnold Trimmer about 1970 and he showed me the original homestead grant signed by President Grant. The ranch is now "Ranch One." It was the first homestead in the Territory.
The absolute best place to experience the annual Pony Express Re-Ride in my opinion is in front of the Genoa Museum as they hand-off. Also, if one goes into the "oldest thirst parlor" bar, you'll learn about the bra tradition... and hopefully get to donate one of your own!
Facinating! So how did Genoa survive and not become another ghost? I would love to hear from a resident of that town. I live near a town that came VERY VERY CLOSE to becoming a ghost town! Breckenridge CO. After the silver boom was done, Breckenridge CO went downhill and almost lost all of her buildings during the Great Depression. She even lost her railroad! She came roaring back to life with the ski resort in 1956. Same story with Aspen CO. She came back in 1948. Actually more of old Aspen survives than old Breckenridge! Also Aspen lost both of her railroads!
Keep in mind that many towns started out the same way as Bodie and the economics kept it going. Look at any town over 120 years old and they looked similar. It's just that when your number one economic engine pans out (mining) your jobs go with it. And let's face it, many people will not tolerate such isolated towns without money and merchants. Thanks for watching!
The candy dance would bring Heather out for sure!! Awesome little town that we've never been to! We'll have to check it out eventually for sure! Great video as always!
@@jbenziggy 09:49 I was actually referring to the skeleton in the window rather than Red Skelton (lol), although Red Skelton was for sure a great entertainer and comedian in his day. It's funny because, as a kid, I always thought Red Skelton's name was "Red Skeleton” and how cool that would sound as a name for a heavy metal rock band of the 1980s. But I digress here....I love your channel. Entertaining and very informative. Aside from the red skeletons, I always learn something. Thank you.
Very nice..those people back then were tough .the wagons looked uncomfortable to me..I am jewish so I know a little bit about the Mormons and I think they were brave people ,,no one is perfect but to travel from the east coast takes guts ..All the travelers who went west were very brave ...Mazel Tov ..I really enjoyed this and it amazes me all the people who went by covered wagon , and the trials they all endured..amazing ..and thank you 🙏
There's a book called 'Death Valley in '49' written by William Manley, one of the Death Valley '49ers that gave that valley its name. He describes the whole trip and says the reason they went through Death Valley was the party was scared to death to stay in Salt Lake City through the winter. They thought the Mormons would murder them all before spring. The Mormons were not nice people in the pioneer days.
That part of Nevada is beautiful, but I fear that it’s gotten a little too pricey for even me. Lots of Californians are fleeing the state for places like this.
Jeff an interesting point is that the territorial enterprise of Mark twain fame was founded in Genoa around 1858 and moved to Virginia city a couple years later. My favorite writer. If you want to laugh your socks off Sam won't let you down.
Actually, Snowshoe Thompson lived in Diamond Valley, near Woodfords. The irrigation ditches he dug from the Carson river are still visible and a few still carry water. On one of his trips back from Placerville, he brought back some very rich gold ore he had found. He never told anyone where the deposit was located, he only said he could see the spot from his bedroom window. After he died suddenly, a small rush descended on the area, but nobody found the deposit and it is still lost today.
We didn't get over to his homestead site in Diamond Valley but we will be talking about him in our visit to his grave in Genoa. That video will be out this weekend! Thanks for watching!
This is a good documentary as I'm familiar with names you mention , Mark Twain , Clarke Gable ,John Wayne so forth , also to be seen are the 19th century carts and stagecoaches and wheels and Saloon but what was in that store ? Liked the video. Thanks again.
@@jbenziggy …. You’re thinking of Hwy 207 too South Lake Tahoe. Which is steep. I mean the original Kingsbury grade that today’s Hwy 207 replaced. The original is blocked off. It’s about halfway between Genoa and where the new kingsbury grade starts going up the mountain
That is interesting to see an actual pair of bear skin gloves. Genoa, I'll have to take my motorcycle there. Not really too far. Antique store looks interesting. Thanks!
I think Charcuterie is a shop in which you can buy sausage. If there are any French people reading the comments, they may be able to tell what the word on the black and white sign means.
I love going through that part of Nevada. There’s a story about Snowshoe Thompson that he found a vein of gold coming over a bad snowstorm. He said he was able to see the peak where he found that gold from Genoa. I believe he died of pneumonia not long afterwards and supposedly it has not been found.
Antique store is packed! Why did the guy walk away from you as you were filming? Maybe camera shy? Nevertheless I enjoyed the video. What camera do you use? Resolution is top notch.
2 things to add, 1. I was born and raised in Saint Joseph, Mo. 2. I notice in your films how many Masonic Lodges there were, who had both good and bad guy members. I did not realize how active the Masons were in the mining towns out west. more than churches.
At the time, Nevada and Utah were considered the Utah Territory. Did you know that? I mentioned that in our video on Aurora, Nevada where Mark Twain hung out for a few months until he realized mining wasn't his gig. LOL
At first glance, seeing the picture of Hank Monk's bear skin gloves, I was taken back! I immediately thought, someone took a picture of my ex wife's feet! Joking aside, loved the video, once again! Good job!!!
This is in my backyard. I live in Carson City, you did a good job covering the town site. You would not believe how large the "Candy Dance" has gotten over the years, but it keeps the town afloat! Thanks Jeff!
We have lived in Genoa for the past 20 years... it is a great place to live. Really enjoyed your video ... thanks for stopping by !
I do love a Sunday morning history hunt.
Wonderful! Thank you very much!
Finn McGovern I loved this
Genoa is still an island resort when crossing over from Bridgeport to Lake Tahoe. A beautiful little town.
It’s probably more of an oasis today than back in the 1850s for sure! Thanks for watching!
With all that is going on in the world, it is refreshing to watch video's such as your's.
Thank you very much! Glad you like our videos!
My mom lives there. I've been there many times and I love it.
My wife and I will be staying in Genoa in two weeks. Thanks for the great video. We just discovered your RUclips channel and look forward to watching all the videos eventually. Keep up the good workvand fascinating videos

Great film again. I always hit the thumbs up before you actually get started. You are always that good.
You rock! Thanks for believing in us!
What a great way to relax for a little while by watching your vids Jeff and Sarah, thank you.
Our pleasure! Thank you very much! Glad they help you relax!!
Enthralling just looking at all that history in that town. What makes Chanel’s like this so good is the video quality these days. You can nearly reach out and touch things. Thanks heaps from Down Under.
Wow, thank you! Glad you enjoyed it! We appreciate you watching!
I'm adding Genoa to my list of places I need to visit. First stop will be the "thirst parlor"
It’s a really cool bar!
I look forward to every Sunday. Thanks Jeff and Sarah!
That's wonderful to hear! Thank you so much!!!
Any town that had Snowshoe Thompson and Hank Monk living there at the same time had to be an interesting place. I'm looking forward to part 2. As always, thanks for sharing your adventures.
Thank you again, Sarah and Jeff, for doing these. I have family living in Carson City- transplanted from our original digs in the Modesto area.
You are welcome! We love producing these videos!
Sweet home modesto
Very interesting video Jeff, thanks for your amazing work.
Many thanks!
Wow! This place is really cool. Loved this one✌️😀👍
Thank you so much 👍
Know the place well. Amazing history.
I lived in South Lake Tahoe and visited Genoa many times. I actually bought an 1880’s freight wagon from an antique dealer there. It was a chore hauling it over that mountain!
Thank you Jeff & Sarah for another great history journey, your presentation and love of American History is amazing, thank you both for sharing
Our pleasure!
lived there in late 70's, a real change from Santa Barbara, there since late 60's, (out of Army) grew up in Bakersfield, on farms, with many Basque friends. Love Genoa, for this reason, it was rural with Tahoe over the hill 24 hrs a day! Left in Fall of 78 when high interests killed construction. Tho have returned to Tahoe a number of times never went back to Genoa until 2018. As with everywhere things change, growth. Gardnerville/Minden with chain stores etc, almost unrecognizable, an old dream of somehow one day returning there to live out rest of life was shattered! Oh well, it's progress! Recall watching the reinactments of the Pony Express and watching the shadow rise on the Eastern slopes as the sun set. Also seeing on #395 just North a bit in a pasture the worlds's largest bull! it was huge!!! Too, the state's oldest bar is haunted! Thanx for the video! Truly enjoyed watching!

@@jbenziggy he's always wondering where you are taking us next....
Excellent Again...Thanks....
Our pleasure! Thanks buddy!
Pony Express stopped here in my town in Pollock Pines, on Pony Express Trail, our main road
Good episode! This one was fun
Dayton and Genoa both claim to be Nevada’s oldest towns. IIRC Dayton is actually older, but not continuously occupied, while Genoa always was.
Like Virginia City and Goldfield both claim to have been the first biggest richest mining city in Nevada.
What a neat little town. Another nice find, Jeff!
Thanks my friend! I take it you’ve not been there. It’s near Carson City and Tahoe.
I love Genoa grew up in the area and I miss it a lot.
I love history it started when I was young and found the history of Ames and the surrounding towns then as I moved around I did history of each place I lived my mom and dad's family where from ames thought I was born in Topeka KS and have done a history about there I have lived in MO. And Ark

I visited Genoa years ago. Too many people don't know its key place in Nevada' history. Thank for this video.
Quaint little town, lots of things to see.
Another history gem an in Nevada too. So much history in that state.
No idea why RUclips recommended this video, but I enjoyed it very much.
I stayed there about 8 years ago.
Loved every minute.
Looking forward to next weeks show.

The telegraph did in the Pony Express -- faster and cheaper.
I love those historic black and white photos.. especially when juxtaposed with modern photos.
Pure entertainment with a lot of serious history thrown in. Love your channel.
Thank you so much! We appreciate you!
Well done. I was hoping you'd go into the bar for a drink. It's full of history and bras
We were going to but the crowd was thick and because of COVID restrictions they weren't letting anyone inside the bar at all! But thanks for watching!
Very much enjoyed the history you brought us in this one Thankyou x
Another great video! Thank you for sharing Genoa with us!
Fantastic! Glad you enjoyed this one too!
Beautiful area right in my backyard.
It really is! We wouldn’t mind living in the Carson Valley!
History Hunters I’ve lived in Reno all 40 years of my life. I definitely could see myself living around Genoa. 🍻
Can’t wait to see the next part and love the old pictures
Thank you! The next one should be out by the weekend!
We love Genoa! We have friends who live there
It’s a very unique place isn’t it?
@@jbenziggy it got real expensive once the California exodise started taking place
This was Wonderful, Loved it..Cant Wait for More..Thank you..
Glad you enjoyed it!
Its always so interesting !! I always look up current real estate in these historic towns.

More Great Unique Stories, Excellent As Always
Thank you for letting us know!
Wow, I've driven right past there many times and never knew about it.
That’s why you need this channel! Ha ha! Thanks for watching .... and commenting!
Candy Dance -Love to See That Back in the Day... Skeleton is Real RUN... Haha
Great History 👍🏻🤠🇺🇸
Great little 🇺🇸 we wee just there !!!!!!
thanks
Another great video. I think there is more stuff about Snowshoe Thompson at the Kirkwood Inn on Hwy 88. Interesting old photos in there.
Clint Eastwood visited that Genoa bar as well.
I'm sure you are correct! In fact they say he shot a scene of Honky Tonk Man in that bar!
excellent video! loved the skeleton!

I gotta go there and have a Cold Beer 🍻
My pizza was a lot more yummy with this blog. Thank you Jeff and Sarah.

History Hunters My pleasure.

First class as usual Jeff.
Thanks very much, Richard!
This is a good documentary as I'm familiar with names you mention , Mark Twain , Clarke Gable ,John Wayne so forth , also to be seen are the 19th century carts and stagecoaches and wheels and Saloon but what was in that store ? Liked the video. Thanks again.
Beautiful town.
It really is! Thanks for watching!
The old Kingsbury Grade is extremely steep!
Yes but it’s kind of fun to drive down it!
@@jbenziggy …. You’re thinking of Hwy 207 too South Lake Tahoe. Which is steep. I mean the original Kingsbury grade that today’s Hwy 207 replaced. The original is blocked off. It’s about halfway between Genoa and where the new kingsbury grade starts going up the mountain
That is interesting to see an actual pair of bear skin gloves. Genoa, I'll have to take my motorcycle there. Not really too far. Antique store looks interesting. Thanks!
I think Charcuterie is a shop in which you can buy sausage. If there are any French people reading the comments, they may be able to tell what the word on the black and white sign means.

He said he was able to see the peak where he found that gold from Genoa. I believe he died of pneumonia not long afterwards and supposedly it has not been found.
Did you watch our newest video where I visit Snowshoe's grave?
History Hunters now I watched it, not much for cemeteries but that was a good show and I had the wrong information about Thompson’s death.
Antique store is packed! Why did the guy walk away from you as you were filming? Maybe camera shy? Nevertheless I enjoyed the video. What camera do you use? Resolution is top notch.
The guy was sort of weird and self-effacing. Camera type? GoPro 7 Black shot at 2.7 K. LOL
Hung out there in the early 80s. Pretty cool then...
It is a very cool old town!
Now we know where Mr. Monks' ancestors came from. :) Monks' descendants migrated to the Jungle. Mr. Monk was my favorite TV show.

You would have thought the 1st town would have been established in wendover since people moved west from the east.
