Hole in the Mountain (Lizzie's Window)

Elko County, NV

Coordinate verified

Natural arch known as Lizzie’s Window or Hole in the Mountain on a ridge of the East Humboldt Range just south of Hole in the Mountain Peak (about 11,300 feet). Visible from Interstate 80 and U.S. 93, it is a signature high-alpine window of northeastern Nevada inside East Humboldt Wilderness, Humboldt–Toiyabe National Forest. Many parties only view it from valley roads; the ridge approach is a serious off-trail scramble.
