21st is also a section line road and I see it called several different names on the maps: Ponderosa, 12th St., Mesa Verde Drive until it meets up with Coal Mine Canyon Road 2 miles to the E. I come in off Coal Mine Canyon because I know that's graveled to that point. But there are several ways to the property. I've seen the county road grader out grading the section line roads over the past several years which is why I also stick to those when exploring this area.

PROPERTY INFORMATION
1.92 acres land for sale in Elko, Nevada off the Ryndon exit about 5 miles N of I-80. It's a corner lot only 3 lots from 1 square mile of BLM land! It's a private undeveloped area with a few neighbors in the far distance zoned for a home or RV use. Beautiful views of the Ruby Mountains and Elko Hills!

All of the photos and video were taken in June 2019 of the property and its surrounding views. McKinley Ave is an overgrown bladed dirt road along the E. 21st is a bladed road along the south of the property as seen in the photos. 21st is also a section line road and I see it called several different names on the maps: Ponderosa, 12th St., Mesa Verde Drive until it meets up with Coal Mine Canyon Road 2 miles to the E.

I come in off Coal Mine Canyon because I know that's graveled to that point. But there are several ways to the property. I've seen the county road grader out grading the section line roads over the past several years which is why I also stick to those when exploring this area.

Looking E down the road that runs along the south of the property with the Ruby Mountains in the distance above the horizon!


The property has a gentle slope down to the N and is part of gentle rolling hills. These are the lower foothills of the Adobe Mountains as it makes it way down to the valley floor where the N Fork of the Humboldt River flows about 4 miles to the S as the crow flies.



Across the other side of the narrow valley from the S to the SW are the Elko Hills tucked in front of the Ruby Mountains! Oh they are pretty and close by and the town of Elko is tucked down below them to the SW.



Popping out above the above the rolling hills from the E to the S are the Ruby Mountains! Called the Swiss Alps of Nevada, her snow capped peaks reach up to 11,317 feet at Ruby Dome.



The Adobe Mountains surround the area. They really are some pretty mountains to watch and such unsung beauty compared to the Rubies. 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 ten years ago. And when I took some time to look at these photos I thought the same thing again – wow those are some cool looking mountains.

They run for about 80 miles and have an area of about 314 square miles. It’s highest summit is 8,134 feet. It's on the list of Nevada’s 172 Prominent Peaks! 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!

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 and this land sits just 3 lots E of 1 square mile of BLM land (640 acres). 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.

One of the largest herds of antelope I’ve seen 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!



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.


What I think is terrific about this area is that it is only about a 20 minute drive to Elko on the interstate! I myself own a piece of land a few miles NE and I keep telling myself someday I am going to build myself a little place there and watch it snow on the Ruby Mountains! I have seen quite a bit of growth out here since I started going to Elko in 2001 but still plenty of room for now! 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!
