In this part, one of what will be a four-part series, we dive into the rise and fall of Fuller’d Crossing. Learn the captivating story of Charles William Fuller and how his road and bridge were instrumental to the rise of Reno.

I am a native Reno resident and love your videos! They are interesting, historically educational, and very well done.
Thank you, I’m glad you like them 💙
Brilliant and well researched! Love your content!
I work really hard on the research phase, I’m glad you liked it.
I grew up in AZ and learned a lot about its history growing up but I've lived in Reno for fifteen years so love this channel for the NV history lessons.
Thank you, I’m glad you like it
Been waiting for a new video. Had no idea it would be this good!
Your comment just made my whole week! Thank you, I worked really hard on it. I’m trying to get Part 2: Lake’s Crossing done and posted by this upcoming Friday.
Informative video! The Buster Keaton footage was a funny touch.
@@slappynixon thank you, I’m glad you liked it. I use Buster Keaton in a lot of my videos, because it’s Royalty free and because he’s awesome!
absolutely agree!
Thank you, I put a lot of work into my videos. I’m glad you like them ❤
1857 was a very cold winter. The US Army became stuck at Ft Bridger in late Oct and couldn't march into Salt Lake until June 1858. Most the cattle and horses froze.
@@TheHypnotstCollector I had never even heard about it until I started researching for this video. Thank you for the extra info 💙 I’m completely going to read more about it now.
@@mapadventures I know this era.... I own JC Fremont's explorations c.1844 and later. And Preuss Maps, Gunnison map 1845. And other explorers and travelers. And many dozens of original books on Mountain Meadows Massacre 911 1857. And I collect maps. That's how I found your channel, looking for map nuts. Found one so far.......Ok, but only a couple other channels..... Drove to Tahoe 7-27-24 and hwy 88 now has "California Trail" signs on the east end.... And there is the Mormon road off of 88, around 5000ft, 10 miles or so above Pioneer . And Maidens Grave and Tragedy Spings, also Mormon are nearby. And Genoa is/was a Mormon town. The Mormons left there and many other places in 1857 to heed Bring'em Young's order for all Mormons to come to Utah to fight the USA. Many thousand Mormons did as ordered.
Your channel has such great production - should have so many more subs given what you put into it.
Thank you❤
Don't fear! I see No Red Shirt.
Wonderful presentation! So Lake Street was named after Charles Lake? I though it had to do with Virginia Lake.
Correct, Lake street was named after Myron Lake. Virginia Lake (originally called County Lake) was made by the CCC in the early 1930’s. So first came the man, then came the road, then came the lake 🤓
