PROPERTY INFORMATION
26.74 acres of land for sale 1.5 miles SW of the small town of Montello, Nevada right on paved Highway 233 with power along it! It’s a fabulous view of the long range of the Pilot Mountains by the Idaho Utah state lines in Elko County, NV. It’s a rural valley well off the beaten path about 25 miles N of Interstate 80 and about 50 miles NW of the busy gambling border town Wendover by the Great Salt Lake. It is about 2.5 hours W of Salt Lake City, 1.5 hours E of Elko and 6 hours N of Las Vegas.

All of the photos were taken of the property and surrounding views in August 2015. I previously sold it and have purchased it back. I have not been to the property since then. It sure was a hazy day in NV. I took the photos along highway 233 towards the north of the property close to where the railroad crosses the highway. There is an easement thru the property for the road and railroad and it appears to be all fenced. The property is zoned for either a home, manufactured home or RV.



The county paved highway runs right thru the middle of the property and it is fenced on both sides off the highway. On the west side it is also fenced along the railroad tracks so you have quite a bit of it already fenced off which I thought would be a good spot for cattle on the west side. On the east side there is a graveled road that leads east towards a wooden fence and down onto the property and I included several photos of the truck at that fence line. That dirt road continues thru the property in a SE direction. There are several homes just to the south along the paved highway and Church Road sits just to the south with more homes along it.



The BLM (Bureau of Land Management) map shows that there is 640 acres (1 square mile) of BLM land on the west. Each square on the BLM map equals one square mile. For more information on BLM land you can visit BLM.gov.

It sure has pretty views of the long range of the Pilot Mountains from the NE to the SE. Rhyolite Butte at the N end is a fascinating rock that sits at 5,965 feet. It rises above the valley floor and when you get up close it really is pretty to look at and shoots straight up in the air - very cool! This end of the range actually sits just across the state line in Utah. They continue down to the SE where you can see Pilot Peak. At 10,716 feet, is the highest peak in the Pilot Mountain Range and can be seen for miles across the valley!



From the NW to the SW are pretty views of the treed Toano Mountains. She is so close you can see the trees filtering down her mountainsides!



I have explored the west side of the Toano Mountains and it is miles of jeep trails to explore with antelope running around. I've seen hunters coming out the canyons on several occasions. Apparently there are elk out there although I have not seen them myself but in October 2014 we were stopped by a hunter with a quad asking if we had seen any elk. He said they liked to hang out in the mountain just across the valley to the west. He also commented on a few people that had improved their properties on the west side of the mountains.



This land was once part of the old Gamble Ranch. You can tell this by looking at the parcel map link where is says "gamble district". This was split up many years ago but there still is the old ranch to the north of Montello. It is a beautiful drive up to the Gamble Ranch and the road takes you on an incredible drive through a narrow fertile valley with gorgeous crops growing along the river! There is a dedicated easement surrounding all of the parcels for ingress and egress so you have the right to put in the road to your property and cross other easements to get to yours!

A few locals educated me about how sacred these mountains were to the natives who lived here many years ago when we stopped in for a bite to eat at the Cowboy Bar Cafe in 2012. They told me that the Pilot Mountains, Toano Mountains and the valley between is filled with arrows, old sewing needs and lots more remnants from those who lived here many, many years ago!

Pilot Valley is the very first place I ever saw a herd of wild horses! They were so stunning – standing there watching me across the valley – tails blowing in the wind! I love my job - TYG!



In 2013 we came across some people out exploring on a side by side just N of Montello. It was a family with a young child with them and they said they were out shedding. I asked what shedding was and learned that they were collecting antlers from the antelope and others that had shed them...ya ok I got it – fun photo below! : )



In 2012 I drove around the Pilot Mountains and included several photos and a video of it in the additional photos area. I found deer, elk, antelope, rabbits, a mirage on the Great Salt Lake Desert, and the pink, orange and purple sunset over the Pilot Mountains! I am not sure what's more stunning, the way the dry salt flat looks like real water or the stunning elk! Loved it!



This is a very rural and remote valley well off the beaten path with a few people scattered up and down it and with the town of Montello, population 138, being the hub for the valley. It offers a gas/mini grocery store, post office and restaurant. I don't ever recall NOT seeing an antelope when I visited this valley and I have seen wild horses roaming out here as well - absolutely stunning when you see them for your first time!

Elko is about 2 hours to the west where you will find a hospital and major shopping. Wendover is a larger town to the SE about an hour on Interstate 80 and people in this valley commute there for work as well as groceries. There is also a mine that has been expanding its operations along I-80 to the S.

It would be a great spot for someone looking for a beautiful rural country setting to build a gentleman's farm or just park your RV with fabulous access and power already in the area! You can watch the antelope and horses roam and still have quick access to Montello for a greasy cheeseburger! Enjoy! Char the Explorer : )

Elko County Montello Area Photos

All of these photos were taken on our journeys to the small town of Montello, Nevada and Elko County! Located in NE Nevada near the Idaho/Utah/Nevada state lines, Montello is a small community but offers a gas/mini grocery store, post office and restaurant.

In January 2015 I spoke to Elko County Public Works Dept and was told they were putting in a metered water station in Montello where you can get drinkable water to haul. The county is in charge of it and access is thru a key pad with a pin # for a monthly fee. You can contact them for further information.

Wendover is a larger town to the SE on I80 and people in this valley commute there for work as well and groceries.

The big town of Elko is about 1.5 hours to the west where you will find a hospital and major shopping. The population of Elko County is over 52,000. The Great Salt Lake sits on the other side of the Pilot Mountains to the east and Salt Lake City is about two hours away. Reno sits on the other side of the state.

The valley is surrounded by two mountain ranges with Pilot Peak to the East and the Toano Mountain Range to the East. The elevation of Pilot Peak reaches up to 10,716 feet.

A video I made of my drive around the E side of the Pilot Mountain Range and the Great Sale Lake Desert in June 2012. It was filled with elk! Incredible!

 

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 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. 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!
