State Route 766 begins in the center of Carlin in Elko County, at an intersection with 10th Street and Chestnut Street (Interstate 80 Business/SR 221). From there, the route heads northward along 10th Street, which becomes Newmont Mine Road. SR passes over Interstate 80 and then heads out of Carlin.
