Henness Pass Road cuts through the high country of the Bald Mountain Range and the Verdi Range, following a legendary trans-Sierra route that once served as a primary artery for mid-19th-century emigrants and freight. The 1981 landscape shown here is dominated by the shared terrain of the Tahoe National Forest and Toiyabe National Forest, where the state line divides Sierra County, California, from Washoe County, Nevada.
