Grant Range

The Grant Range is a remote and rugged mountain range located in central Nevada. Spanning a north-south distance of approximately 50 miles, the range is characterized by steep, rocky peaks and deep, glaciated valleys. The highest elevations reach over 11,000 feet, with the range's crest forming the drainage divide between the Humboldt River basin to the north and the Great Salt Lake basin to the south. The terrain is predominately barren, with sparse alpine vegetation and rocky, windswept slopes. Numerous small glacial lakes and tarns dot the higher elevations, fed by melting snowpack during the spring and summer months.
