Another great hotel, the Nevada in Ely has a distinctive Hollywood flair. In the days of the Midland Trail and the early days of Route 6, movie stars would motor from Los Angeles to Sun Valley, Idaho through Ely. In remembrance of those days, the hotel has named its rooms after stars who stayed there. Our favorite is the Hoot Gibson Room. (May 2003 photo)

Move over Hollywood Boulevard! Ely has it's own walk of fame, proudly displayed in front of the Nevada Hotel. (May 2003 photo)
