The Ruby Mountains Range is a narrow range 60 miles long and 10 to 12 miles wide, located east of Elko, Nevada. Geologists estimate this ridge emerged about 20 million years ago when the earth's crust was folded and broken several times. Alpine glaciers during the Ice Age vigorously scoured the northern end of the Rubies.
Lamoille Canyon, a U shaped canyon in the heart of the Rubies, is known as "Nevada's Yosemite" because of the hanging valleys, towering peaks and year-round snowfields above it. The Rubies feature 10 peaks above 11,000 feet including 11,387-foot Ruby Dome, and more than two dozen alpine lakes.
