Carson Valley and Douglas County 106 images Created 17 Dec 2009

Carson Valley, just south of Carson City is a Great Basin valley known for its small-town rural charm and its many, lush ranches most dating back prior to statehood in 1864.

Annually, Carson Valley's two principle towns, Minden and Gardnerville, host Carson Valley days in late spring and the Buckaroo Fest Ranch Rodeo.

In fall, the cottonwood trees glow golden at the foot of the Carson Range by Nevada's first town, Genoa. Winter coats the landscape with a dusting of white and summer the waters from the Carson River keep the valley lush and green.
