Early History of Caliente, NV~
The meadow area around the junction of Meadow Valley Wash and Clover
Creek was originally settled in the early 1860's by Ike and Dow Barton, two
Negro slaves who had escaped from Arkansas. In the early 1870’s the area
was known as Dutch Flat, with Jackman Ranch being established. In 1874,
ranchers Charles and William Culverwell purchased the Jackman Ranch and
renamed it as Culverwell Ranch. It was later referred to as "Culverwell." Along with ranching, the family earned
a living by providing hay for the mining camps in Pioche and Delamar.
A dispute between two major railroad companies began when E.H. Harriman of the Oregon Short Line and
Union Pacific, pushed track from Utah to the site of Culverwell. Even as Harriman's crews worked on the line,
the newly formed San Pedro, Los Angeles and Salt Lake Railroad owned by Senator William Clark, claimed
the same territory. These rival groups had sought the right-of-way in a canyon only big enough only for a single
set of tracks. The Union Pacific had grade stakes set all the way into Culverwell and on toward Pioche, but
their rival group gobbled up enough of the narrow canyon to set a road block in the path of Union Pacific.
In 1901 William Culverwell ended the Harriman-Clark battle with his shotgun. As owner of the land, Culverwell
allowed one railroad grade to be built through his property. The two factions eventually reconciled, Union
Pacific assumed control of the project. Culverwell became "Calientes" (the Spanish word for hot) after the hot
springs found in a cave at the base of the surrounding mountains. The town was surveyed, and on August 3,
1901, a post office opened and postal officials renamed the town Caliente, dropping the ‘s’. The railroad line
was completed in 1905, and by 1910, Caliente was the largest town in Lincoln County with 1,755 residents.
A two-story wooden structure served as a train depot until burning down in one of Caliente's disastrous fires. In
1923, the impressive Caliente Train Depot was built, a classic Mission-style building constructed of tan stucco.
This two-story building included the railroad station, private offices and a community center on the first floor,
while the second level featured a hotel.
Within a few years, Caliente grew to more than 5,000 residents. For more than 40 years, Caliente was one of
the major division points on the railroad line. When steam engines were replaced by diesel locomotives in the
1940's, the division point moved to Las Vegas. Without the depot as a main railroad stop, the town’s growth
dwindled but not its spirit.
Caliente is conveniently located within some of the most beautiful country in the state. To the south is
magnificent Rainbow Canyon, settled by Joseph and Emma Conaway in 1874, whom had an active cattle
ranch until the late 1970’s. The canyon begins in an oasis-like setting of Kershaw-Ryan State Park just 2 miles
south of the city center. Within 50 miles of the town are four other state parks: Beaver Dam, Cathedral Gorge,
Spring Valley, and Echo Canyon.
A town steeped in history, Caliente has many stories to tell and was one of the favorite writing spots for
western novelist Zane Grey.

Special Notes:
1) Pit 1 is a Remote Pit. It is before Alamo, and before the Start Line. We only recommend going to
Pit 1 if you have an extra support truck. MC/Q - if you cannot go 75 miles on a tank of gas we
recommend carrying gas with you. It is 28.2 miles to Pit 1 and another 44.6 miles to Pit 2 for a total of
72.8 miles. Pit 1 is 12 miles in on Alamo Canyon Road, a dirt road.
2) Your pit support truck will not be able to beat the race vehicle from Pit 5 to Pit 6. This will be your only
difficulty pitting and this is where you will need a second support truck.

PIT SUPPORT BOOK
* We gave you mileage from Las Vegas/Boulder Stationto Pit 1 because Pit 1 is before the Start Line;
so Pit 1 is 95 miles from Las Vegas on the paved road US-93 and 12.0 miles in on a dirt road for
a total of 107. (coming from Las Vegas.)
