PROPERTY INFORMATION
1.03 acres land between Elko and Wells, Nevada just off Interstate 80 with power at adjoining neighbors and great access on a graveled road! Oh the views were awesome of the Ruby Mountains that were packed with snow and the red reeds in the early spring down by the Humboldt River in April 2013 and my notes say BEAUTIFUL, JUST BEAUTIFUL! Often called the Swiss Alps of Nevada the Rubies reach up to 11,300 feet at Ruby Dome. Located in Elko County, Nevada's Cowboy Country it’s close to the Humboldt National Forest and Ruby Lake! Elko is about 160 miles SW of Twin Falls, Idaho between Reno and Salt Lake City, Utah.

All of the photos were taken in April 2013 of the property and its surrounding views. Oh the views are awesome of the Ruby Mountains from the E to the S to the SE – a very long awesome view! She was packed with snow and it had been snowing more the past couple of days! To the south about two miles you could see the reeds along the Humboldt River turning red in the spring time! Oh I loved the view!

It was easy to locate the property and the roads were marked. The property is just north of Interstate 80 and there was a graveled improved road running all the way to the property with power running along it across the street!

It is a rolling gentle hill that slopes off from the west to the east and we saw stakes. It had sage brush and grass nicely covering it and it still had a bit of snow in patches on the property – not quite all melted yet. There was a grass lot to the south that was nice and the neighbor to the east has a well head and power hookup to pull in their RV – looked like a great idea to me! There are a few scattered homes in the area and one at the end of the block a couple lots to the west. We found stakes at the corners and included photos of them.

In the area are the South Fork Reservoir, Wildhorse Reservoir, and Ruby Lake sits on the other side of the Ruby Mountains. The Humboldt National Forest sits to the N in the Jarbidge Mountains where the early beginnings of the N Fork of the Humboldt River form and flows within a few miles to the south of this property! This area is such a hunters and fishermen place - a place filled with outdoors-men and cowboys! : )

I definitely give this 5 stars for being so close to Elko, the views of the Ruby Mountains and Humboldt River and having power across the road. The homes in the area are nicely kept and I think this is such a cute place to build a home or make a getaway to hang out in the high desert sunshine! Oh I love my job! 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.
