Behind the bars, unlocking the history of Nevada State Prison
Recently I saw an article about tours of Nevada’s historic prison in Carson City. We got tickets for last weekends tour, and little did Steph and I know how interesting our experience would be, involving human and natural history. The prison historical organization is all volunteer, our tour guide was a local school teacher, and our second guide was a retired officer who worked at the prison in the 1970’s. Looking from a cell block at the main yard and the Carson Range of mountains. The ice age caves are in the far left corner.
