Before I retired in 2015, from the trucking industry, I had stayed in Winnemucca several times, but, was limited to parking my truck/trailer...and, therefore couldn't get out and sight see. I had no idea there was so much going on here! Wow! I plan to go full time RVing soon in a Roadtrek 190 so Winnemucca's definitely on my bucket list! Thanks for the excellent video! Waving from Houston, Texas! God Bless!
Yasir,have you ever felt a weird warming sensation going throughout your body as you drove on the highway south of Winnemucca? I felt it and I'm trying to find people that have also felt it.
Hugo,when you driving south of Winnemucca before you got into town did you ever feel a weird warming sensation going throughout your body? I had a weird experience while I was 15 miles south of town and I'm trying to find other people that have felt it or had the same experience that I did while they were driving just south of Winnemucca.
My family stayed at the Best Western Winnemucca Inn on our way from Kentucky to California when I was ten years old in 1966. It was the first time I had been west of the Mississippi River, and I was fascinated by the variety of people and landscapes in this country. I remember seeing my first slot machines in the lobby of the motel in Winnemucca. I passed through town again in the early 1990s, and went into the motel and asked a few questions. I don't think the section of the motel where we stayed is still standing, but I may be wrong about that. Where in this video was the old Humboldt Hotel? I love old hotels, and I have a few postcards of the place.
I have been thinking about moving there and have heard both good and bad. I`m simply looking for the small town atmosphere without the big city problems. Could someone give me some advice? I`d really like to know.
This might seem weird, but me and my boyfriend are colored (Hes black and I'm mixed) and currently live in upstate NY. I want to become a homesteader and we're currently looking for land. would you consider this town racist at all? It makes me nervouse moving so far from family and taking a chance, we plan on visiting.. but would love to know as much info as possible before going. Thanks! :)
I would check out Quincy CA. in about 1970 CA created junior collages. All places had to belong to a district and you could only go to one in your district. Quincy was to small at that time and far from other towns. So they partnered with far away Oakland. Many people in Oakland jumped at a chance to go to school in the high Sierras. The school is on its own now but it changed Quincy forever. Snow in the winter but you cant find a more pretty place to live and no small town I know of has a higher rate of black to white.
I'm looking for people that live around Winnemucca. While I was passing through Winnemucca on the highway about a year ago in early 2018 I felt this weird spiritual warming sensation going throughout my body as I drove south of Winnemucca 15 miles for about 5 minutes as I drove south on the higway. Has anyone else ever felt this before or know about it? That same evening I drove through the same area and felt the same thing. Can anyone relate to this happening to them? You can feel this weird warm spiritual sensation going throughout your body. I'm LDS and can feel alot of things spiritually soo it makes me think that the highway through that area is on sacred indian burial ground. What do you guys think it is? Guys I'm not makeing this stuff up. It really happend and now I'm trying to figure out what it is. I know theres another story thats connected to the Winnemucca area about a natural spring way below the ground in the southern part of Nevada.
That Taco Time place is ridiculous. It is an injustice to tacos and burritos. They have nothing you'd expect to see at a normal burrito/taco joint. The most normal one was this burrito with hand-breaded chicken tenders, ranch dressing and a fuck load of cheese. I watched them make it on the assembly line, and right at the end, THEY THROW IT IN THE MICROWAVE! RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME! They make no effort to hide the fact that they microwave your food. Shameless....
Explore? Commercial drivel is more like it. Pointing out all the spots where people can drop their bucks is an exploration? What about the Shoshones and the Paiutes and the French and German pioneers/trappers. What about the Basques? The miners. the Rodeo.. What was the original name of the Winner's Inn? What was the original name of Winnemucca ? Shameful bullshit., you owe the town and your audience and apology.
I watched this video because I may eventually have to work here. I'm thinking about just blowing my brains out instead and just saving myself the misery.
Too bad you have taken that position, it is a fantastic town in an historic area the likes of which are a rarity in the US. Do a bit of research and consider yourself lucky to be assigned there.

Winnamuck does have the brothels to entertain the truckers.

The Hunting is Real Good in Winnemucca and northern nevada.
Catch yourself a Buck!
Yeah, c'mon down and kill something.
@@bohemian46 Better to do it yourself than have the slaughterhouse do it for you.
Nice quiet friendly town. I visited from Los Angeles CA. I was there back in 2012

When "The flying pig BBQ" was there it was great, but "The Griddle "is a nice breakfast place.
I really like your videos! Great footage and great reviews!

No not at all
Not a place I would homestead though I am very fond of Winnemucca. As to racist, don't think so, it wasn't when I lived there.

Dude, did you feel the buzzing too? It's for real. There are a lot of spirits there. Not kidding either.
I lived there in the 50s.. I am well aware of this and not everyone experiences it.
@@bohemian46 What could it be? I always thought native spirits or the amount of nuclear waste in the state. Seriously.
It's uh- the electrical wires.
Frontier motel is Questionable. No towels for shower... Asked , never given.
i live in winnemucca navada
Same, I live there to
my condolences
You'd think a bitch that lives in her state would know how to spell it out...
Judy Wadsworth
Hi, do u still live in Winnemucca?
@@peaktwice3202 Your mindset is showing and it is abhorrent.
An electrified hole
So you went to the video game store instead of finding some nice companionship or paying for a professional ?

Shameful bullshit., you owe the town and your audience and apology.
Oh pick me pick me. Originally named French Ford, later named Centerville, finally Winnemucca after Chief Winnemucca( Winnemucca meaning one moccasin)
Can tell ya, winnemuccains don't care
I watched this video because I may eventually have to work here.
I'm thinking about just blowing my brains out instead and just saving myself the misery.

You know to much

You obviously went to school in California, not Nevada. That would be "too" not to.
"Classic charm"???? ok, this place is ugly, depressing and isolated.
neckarsulme It is one of the only places I've been to that supports everyone and is kind!So you should shut the eff up
You being offended doesn't take the fact away from my statement.....Winnemucca is still ugly, depressing and isolated, so no, I won't shut the effup.
@@neckarsulme It is ugly and depressing for those who do not take the time to know it. Neckarsulm is not so inviting by my experience.
It's only classic charm down town
