These were taken in a small place called Salt Wells, Nevada. The two wire phone line runs about 15 miles between Fallon and Salt Wells along the edge of a huge salt flat and just west of the "Sand Mountain" sand dune. It's looks like a relatively modern line, feeding the one and only building in Salt Wells. 99% of the insulators were clear 106 Heminggray 9's. On one odd span there's a Brookfield 133 and a 121 that stuck out like a soar thumb.
