About this listen
A Winchester Model 1873 rifle was found leaning against a pinion tree in the high Nevada desert in 2014. It had been there, undisturbed, for over 130 years.
Nobody knows who left it there. But perhaps ...there was a Shoshone boy and his father on a hunting trip, a cowboy and his partner, a classic Western story about cattle drives, bandits, and ranching in the high Nevada desert. The discovery of a cave, hot summers, cold winters - all result in a reason for the rifle being left leaning against the tree over 130 years ago.
The actual Forgotten Winchester was discovered in November 2014 in the Great Basin National Park in Baker NV. It was stabilized and is now on display at the park’s Visitor Center.
The book includes pictures and details of the actual discovery, restoration, and display of the Forgotten Winchester in the Great Basin National Park Visitor's Center in Baker NV.
