  • Fort Ruby, also known as Camp Ruby, was built in 1862, during the American Civil War, in the "wilderness of eastern Nevada." It protected the overland mail coaches and Pony Express, which linked California to the Union. It was operated 1862 to 1869. It was located at the east entrance to the Overland Pass from Ruby Valley, near Hobson on the west side of Ruby Lake. It was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1961. Two of the four landmarked buildings were burned in a fire in 1992. Also, since the "log structures were in poor condition when this site was designated as a Landmark, and they have been altered and deteriorated significantly since designation," continued landmark status is under review.
