The highway heads almost due north from this location, passing through the Amargosa Valley.

On the west side of the highway, the farm lands and homes of the community of Amargosa Valley come into view.

This route crossed the state line roughly where the current highway crosses now, but instead veered northwest to State Route 5 (now US 95) southwest of Beatty near the now defunct town of Caracca.

[3] The road, which paralleled the tracks of the Tonopah and Tidewater Railroad to the west, was recognized as State Route 29 by 1932.

[4] By 1935, SR 29 had been moved to a new, paved roadway resembling the alignment of the present-day highway.
