Curnow Range

The Curnow Range is a small but rugged mountain range located in rural northwestern Nevada. Spanning approximately 20 miles, the range features steep, rocky peaks and ridges rising abruptly from the surrounding high desert landscape. The terrain is characterized by exposed granite, talus slopes, and sparse alpine vegetation, creating a remote, wilderness-like character. Despite its relatively low elevations compared to nearby Sierra Nevada and Cascade ranges, the Curnow Range offers a true alpine experience for outdoor enthusiasts.
