John C. Fremont visited the Black Rock Desert in December 1842 and January, 1843. His group has the first recorded ascent of Old Razorback Mountain and the first recorded visit to Gerlach "Great Boiling" Springs. Godeys Rock and Godeys Gap are named for Alexander Godey, who scouted the area while Fremont's party rested at the springs.
