In July 1986, Life magazine published an article that gave US 50 in Nevada the name "The Loneliest Road in America".  The article portrayed the highway, and rural Nevada, as a place devoid of civilization.  Officials from White Pine County decided to make the best of the publicity generated from the article, and convinced state authorities to do the same.  Jointly, they began to use the pejorative article as a platform to market the area for visitors interested in desert scenery, history, and solitude.  The Nevada Department of Transportation adopted the name in official highway logs, and placed custom Highway 50 markers along the route.
