Analysis of information sources in references of the Wikipedia article "Nevada State Route 317" in English language version.
The flooding down Rainbow Canyon in January, 2005, has limited access for the present; but State Route 317 is on the list for Nevada Dept. of Transportation to repair as funds become available.
Elgin Schoolhouse is closed to the public at this time. SR 317 was heavily damaged in the 2005 floods. Until the reconstruction on SR 317 (Rainbow Canyon Highway) is complete, the Elgin School house State Historic Site will be closed indefinitely as of May 15, 2008.
