PROPERTY INFORMATION
2.27 and 2.48 acre adjoining lots for sell in Elko, Nevada with views of the Elko Hills and Ruby Mountains! Totals 4.75 acres of land that adjoins 640 acres of BLM land! Great investment property in Cowboy Country only about 10 Miles NE of Town and 2.5 Miles N of Interstate 80 in Elko County, NV. Elko sits in NE Nevada near Idaho between Reno, NV and Salt Lake City, Utah, about 7 hours N of Las Vegas. Very few neighbors so lots of privacy in this undeveloped area!

All of the pictures were taken 2 blocks SW, about 1/3 mile from this property in June 2012 around Block 31 Lot 8. I also included a few photos of me standing in Jackstone Creek a few blocks west in April 2013. It sits about 8 miles NE of Elko and 2.5 miles N of Interstate 80. Take the Osino exit and then Paiute North to Apache. Apache heads in a NW direction then bends north to the east side of lot #1. Some maps call this Apache the entire way and some call it Comanche as seen in the parcel map.

Lot #1 is a corner lot on Comanche and 11th Street and lot #2 sits 361 feet to the W as seen in the parcle map. I played with Google Earth and the elevation around the creek is 5261'. Comanche then climbs north to about 5365' feet to 11th Street so a 100 foot rise. You can see in the aerial photos they have bladed a bit of a curve into that road making it easier to get to the top but you probably are going to need a truck to make that climb without improving the road. So bring your walking shoes as you might have to walk that couple blocks from the creek.

Lot #1 is mostly flat and lot #2 is flat for about an acre along the N and then drops down to the SE. That's definitely going to give you a great view over this valley across to the Elko Hills, Ruby Mountains and the creek carving its way thru the valley just below!

Jackstone Creek flows thru the valley just to the SE as seen in the maps and aerial photos. I believe there are some old junk cars being used to enforce the road along the creek - hmmm I guess it works! Note about the creek - you do not have the right to pull any water from this creek - you do have the right to go watch the little fish swimming around in it and birds hanging out by it!

Because this piece sits on the rolling hill it offers stunning views over the valley in all directions! It is a very beautiful part of the valley with gorgeous views to the Elko Hills and the Ruby Mountains behind them. The peaks were still snow-capped when we visited! Called the Swiss Alps of Nevada her snow capped peaks reach up to 11,317 feet at Ruby Dome.

The Adobe Mountain Range sits to the north and there are beautiful views of this as well. They are located N and NW of Elko and run for about 80 miles and have an area of about 314 square miles. It’s highest summit is 8,134 feet. She is definitely an unsung hero compared to the Rubies but she also has lots of character in her and I remember thinking how unique some of her cool peaks are when I first started taking photos of her about fifteen years ago.

Most of the Adobes are a checkerboard of public (Bureau of Land Management) and private ownership. This pattern is attributed to the Pacific Railway Act of 1862, where the federal government gave railroad companies free land in alternating sections as an incentive and a means to finance the overwhelming task of linking east with west by rail.

Elko County contains the majority of Nevada’s mule deer and this range is home to one of the largest mule deer and antelope herds in the state. They migrate between their summer range in the Snake and Adobe ranges to winter range in the Pequop Mountains. The N Fork of the Humboldt River borders the Adobe range to the south and east.

One of the largest herds I’ve seen in my life in 2004 while exploring this area!




Within an hour’s drive of the property are some famous fishing holes, Wildhorse Reservoir, Ruby Lake, and South Fork Reservoir! On one of my first visits to Elko County these two nice gentlemen told me that Ruby Lake was the best fishing in the state!



Wildhorse Reservoir is a 2,800 acre premium trout reservoir 60 miles north of the town of Elko. In 2011 I ran into some men who had just hauled a 350 pound elk from the Wild Horse State Recreation Area and of course I have included photos of those as well! Hunters know the area for its elk, deer, mountain lion and bird but it's the fishermen that tell tall stories about ice fishing at Wildhorse.

Ruby Lake National Wildlife Refuge sits on the SE side of the Ruby Mountains. With over 12,000 acres this area is a special habitat to over 207 species of birds providing feeding, nesting and a resting stop in the Pacific Flyway. On one of my first visits to Elko County some nice gentlemen told me that Ruby Lake was the best fishing in the state!

South Fork Reservoir and State Rec area is about 20 minutes S of Elko. It covers 1,650 acres and is surrounded by 2,200 acres of wildlife-filled meadow land and rolling hills and known for its trophy-class trout and bass.


The BLM (Bureau of Land Management) map shows that there is 640 acres (1 section = 1 square mile = 640 acres) of BLM land just to the east of lot #1. Each square on the BLM map equals one square mile and BLM land is in orange. For more information on BLM land you can visit BLM.gov.

The zoning allows for a home, manufactured home or year round RV use! I have really seen the areas along Interstate 80 continuing to grow. You’re still within a reasonable drive to the bustling town of Elko for a garlic steak sandwich at the Star Hotel in downtown Elko! I see signs in town and along the interstate that said HIRING and I continue to think that these lots so close to town are worth investing in. Enjoy! Char the Explorer : )

A video of my journeys thru Meadow Valley Ranchos Unit 11, the Hamilton-Bullion Trail and the South Fork State Reservoir where I sat thru a cattle drive in Elko, Nevada!

 

The Hamilton-Bullion Trail is an 11 mile loop for horses, hikers and mountain bikers. It goes from Elko onto BLM land and over hills offering scenic views of the Ruby Mountains, South Fork Reservoir and the Humboldt River. South Fork covers 1,650 acres and is surrounded by 2,200 acres of wildlife-filled meadow land and rolling hills. Known for its trophy-class trout and bass, and bird watching.

Elko County is located in northeastern Nevada, 295 miles east of Reno and 237 miles west of Salt Lake City. With 17,135 square miles it is one of the largest counties in the USA and is the heart of NE Nevada. A book listing American towns with the highest quality of life declared Elko, Nevada, "The Best Small Town in America." It is a small city, and a booming trading and service center for a mining and ranching area roughly the size of New England. In 2005 Relocate-America.com has named Elko City as 1 of the "Top 100 Places To Live" in the United States.

The population of Elko County is over 52,000, the town of Elko is over 18,000 and the town of Spring Creek is 12,000. Lately, Elko has evolved into a showcase for Western American Folk Art. Long famous for the National Basque Festival, held each Independence Day, a new era in Elko's cultural history began in 1985, when the first Cowboy Poetry Gathering was held. Estimates are 8000 - 10000 people attended the festival this January!

The weather in Elko County is considered ideal by many. Summer finds hot, dry afternoons with temperatures in the 90s, cooling to the low 40s and 50s by morning. Winters are moderate with lows typically in the 20s or 30s. Daytime highs during the winter months are in the 40s or 50s. Snowfall averages 42 inches per year and generally melts quickly. Yearly rainfall ranges from 9 to 10.5 inches. Sunny skies are usually seen over 300 days a year!

The land is mountainous and interspersed with low, flat valleys. The Humboldt River flows through the county, with the Ruby Mountains stretching across it in a north-south direction. The elevation in the valleys is about 5000 and reaches up to 11,300 feet at Ruby Dome. The elevation of Pilot Peak on the east side of Elko County reaches up to 10,716 feet. Elko County provides unlimited recreational opportunities with fishing, big game hunting (mule deer, elk, antelope and bighorn sheep), snowmobiling, ice fishing, mountain biking, hiking, camping, boating and skiing.

A video of my first journey around the Ruby Mountains in June 2004! Includes Ruby Lake National Wildlife Refuge, the Humboldt River and the Last Chance Ranch II by Spring Creek and Elko, Nevada!
