Jobs Peak, Mountain summit in Alpine County, US
Jobs Peak rises to an elevation of 10,638 feet in the Sierra Nevada Carson Range, offering views across Lake Tahoe and Carson Valley.
The mountain received its name from Moses Job, a merchant who established a store near Sheridan, Nevada during the early 1850s.
The peak forms part of the Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest, where numerous hiking trails connect different sections of the Carson Range.
Climbing season extends from June through October, with routes requiring at least two liters of water per person due to limited water sources.
The mountain contains protected areas for the Tahoe Draba, a plant species that exists exclusively in this specific region.
