Carson City is the capital of Nevada and takes its name from mountain man and adventurer Kit Carson. He passed thru these parts way back in 1843 and 1844 with the John Fremont expedition. This terrific statue sits in a lovely courtyard in front of the Nevada Supreme Court in downtown Carson City. Photo taken November 23, 2020.
