Can someone pinpoint the location of Trail Creek, believed to be in Esmeralda Co., NV?

I have an inscription in a book that says --
From Ada to Mama, Trail Creek, Nevada, Nov. 11, 1905.

Of course, the next problem is identifying the family name. At the moment I haven't a clue beyond this inscription.

I tried the 1900 Esmeralda Co., NV, census for the name Ada, hoping to find a daughter around 15 years old, give or take 5 years, but came up empty.

And the 1910 census has 3 daughters named Ada, but all were too young for the book's 1905 inscription. Of the remaining 8 Adas, Ada O. Meek, b. ca. 1891 in OK, is the best possibility. She was the wife of William A. Meek and appears to have been newly married. However, LDS IGI has that they were married in 1909 in Craig Co., OK. So I'm back to Square One.

There is a Trail Creek stream in Esmeralda county, it appears to be north of Dyer and south of Basalt, west of highway 264. Perhaps in Inyo National Forest. There may have been a small settlement by that name or a camp ground.

Type in "mapqest" in your search box and then "Trail Creek Nevada" when you get to their page. It will give you four or five Trail Creek hits, look a number 1.

Thanks so much for a quick response. I know about the stream because that's the only Trail Creek that comes up on the USGS website and listed in Humboldt, Esmeralda, Nye, and Elko counties.

What I'm looking for is the location of the post office known as Trail Creek as this was the family's address in 1905. Most likely in someone's home, but a post office nonetheless and likely no longer exists.

Is there a listing somewhere of "extinct" post offices in Nevada? Many states have such a listing, but does Nevada have one?

I tried MapQuest (which I don't like and never have) and no results were produced because MapQuest only produces results for what exists today, and not yesterday. That's why I use the USGS website. The unfortunate part is that the U.S. Census Bureau has disconnected the link to their maps from the USGS search results, and those maps were the very best and I really miss them.

Thanks again.
