Ruby Valley Pony Express Station

It was moved in 1960 approximately 60 miles (97 km) to Elko, during the centennial anniversary year for the Pony Express, and then restored, and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

It is an 11-by-18-foot (3.4 m × 5.5 m) log building with a stone fireplace; sod originally covered its roof.

In its move, all logs and stones were numbered and charted so that it could be reconstructed in Elko in pretty much unaltered form.

Supreme Court Justice Earl Warren attended as guest speaker, attendees were local residents and the student body of Cave Creek School.
