About Bunker Hills

The Bunker Hills are a small mountain range located in northwestern Nevada, spanning an area of approximately 50 square miles. The terrain is characterized by rugged, granite peaks and ridges, interspersed with alpine meadows and sparse pine forests. The range is generally arid, with a high-desert climate and limited surface water sources. Geologically, the Bunker Hills are part of the larger Basin and Range province, formed by tectonic plate movements and volcanic activity over millions of years.
