About Shoshone Range
The Shoshone Range is a rugged mountain range located in central Nevada. It stretches for approximately 50 miles from north to south, with elevations ranging from around 6,000 feet in the valleys to over 11,000 feet at the highest peaks. The terrain is characterized by steep, jagged ridges, alpine lakes, and deep canyons carved by glaciers during the last ice age. Much of the range is protected as part of the Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest, offering ample opportunities for outdoor recreation.
