PROPERTY INFORMATION

2.06 acres land for sale in Elko, Nevada with beautiful views of the Ruby Mountains and the Elko Hills. It's a corner lot 16 miles NE of Elko off the Ryndon exit about 2.5 miles from Interstate 80. Oh this sure is a pretty chunk of land!

All of the photos were taken in August 2018. I took Indian Hills Road out to the area off I-80. Kayenta Dr is a dirt road along the N which was a decent bladed road. Sioux Avenue is an overgrown bladed dirt road along the W. I saw a rebar stake at the NW corner of the property. There's power about 1/3 mile away at the neighbors. You would need to contact the local power company for the cost to bring it to the property. I noticed some of the neighbors are on solar.

It's a pretty spot not too far from town and a quick drive to Interstate 80 once you figure out how to make your way to the property sticking on the better roads the neighbors are driving.

The property is mostly flat with a gentle roll. It's covered in healthy sagebrush and some scattered desert grass. There's a few neighbors with RV's a few lots away but no one immediately adjoining the property. This area has been slowly growing from the E to the W. There's quite a bit more homes the closer you get to I-80. I thought it was a pretty tree line at the neighbors and you can see they cleared their property of the sagebrush. Funny how I think that's the best part - it smells so good! Ha!

 

It was a cloudy day and hazy from the fires in California but I could make out the Ruby Mountains hidden in the not too far distance from the SE to the S! Oh they are so majestic and I was thrilled to see them hiding! Often called the Swiss Alps of Nevada they rise to 11,387 feet at Ruby Dome!.

 

The Elko Hills sit in front of them to the south. They are so close by they look giant! They sure are interesting.

 

The property sits in the lower foothills of the Adobe Range and there's a great view of her big mountains from the NW to the SW. She's got such cool peaks and I remember marveling at her when I first starting exploring this area - she's different than the others - not as tall but just as interesting!

 

The Adobe Range is located N and NW of Elko, Nevada, runs for about 80 miles and has an area of about 314 square miles. Its highest point is an unnamed summit of 8,134 feet. 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.

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.

While researching the Adobe Mountain Range I found a posting on summitpost.org of someone that hiked to the peak. They shared how to get out to the trail and the way up to the peak. They also shared several fabulous photos overlooking across the valley and Humboldt River to the Ruby Mountains. It seems that this is becoming quite known to climbers as you will see in the photos! Cool!


Within 1.5 hour's drive of the property are some famous fishing holes, Wildhorse Reservoir, Ruby Lake, and South Fork Reservoir!

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.


I have really seen the areas along Interstate 80 continuing to grow. It seems it's mostly the locals who buy properties out here to build a home in the country side yet still be within a reasonable drive to the bustling town of Elko. I continue to think that these lots so close to town are worth investing in.

This would be a nice spot for someone looking for a building spot or a getaway with your RV to sit and marvel at the Rubies! 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.
