Lander County, NV

Coordinate verified

High point of the Desatoya Mountains along the Lander–Churchill line, anchoring Desatoya Wilderness Study Area / surrounding BLM high country between US-50 and the Reese River drainage. Big central-Nevada skyline with sagebrush slopes, aspen pockets, and long views over Edwards Creek and Smith Creek valleys — a thin-county summit for hikers seeking solitude away from Tahoe and Charleston corridors.
