Nevada Historical Marker #202 - Fairview

Nevada Historical Marker #202 sits at 4,290 feet along the Loneliest Road in America, with the terrain dropping 52 feet over the next 600 meters. Dromedary Hump rises to the southeast at 5,888 feet, about 3.2 miles away, while Chalk Mountain stands to the east-northeast at 5,311 feet, roughly 5.8 miles out. Fallon Station lies 28.9 miles west-northwest, Fallon 32.8 miles in the same direction, and Schurz 39.4 miles to the southwest. Daylight hours shift with the seasons: sunrise comes at 5:27 a.m. and sunset at 8:24 p.m. around the June solstice, while the December solstice brings a 7:10 a.m. sunrise and a 4:34 p.m. sunset. The equinoxes fall closer to the 12-hour mark, with sunrise near 6:57 or 6:41 a.m. and sunset between 6:52 and 7:05 p.m. This is a marked stop rather than a developed overlook, offering a fixed point to check position relative to the surrounding peaks and distant towns along the route.
