Lamoille Lake

Located in Nevada

Lamoille Lake, Nevada. However, here's a brief overview of the lake. Lamoille Lake is located in the Ruby Mountains of northeastern Nevada, approximately 20 miles southeast of the city of Elko. The lake, situated at an elevation of over 8,800 feet, is a popular location for outdoor recreation, including fishing, boating, hiking, and camping. The lake has a surface area of about 30 acres and reaches a depth of up to 40 feet. It is fed by melting snow and springs in the surrounding mountains and drains into Lamoille Creek, a tributary of the Humboldt River. The lake's clear and cold waters support populations of stocked rainbow trout and self-sustaining populations of mountain whitefish and Lahontan cutthroat trout. Lamoille Lake and the surrounding area are known for their stunning natural beauty, with jagged peaks, alpine meadows, and aspen groves dotting the landscape. The lake can only be accessed by hiking or horseback riding, with trails leading to the area from the nearby Lamoille Canyon and other trailheads in the Ruby Mountains
