Pahute Peak Wilderness, Protected wilderness area in Black Rock Range, Nevada, US
The central portion of the Black Rock Range contains elevations ranging from 4,050 to 8,594 feet across 57,400 acres of diverse terrain.
Explorer John C. Fremont traversed this region in 1843, leading to the naming of Fremont's Castle in the southern section of the wilderness.
The Bureau of Land Management protects this area to maintain natural landscapes and provide opportunities for outdoor recreation without motorized interference.
Visitors need satellite phones due to limited cell coverage, and high-clearance vehicles are necessary to access many of the surrounding dirt roads.
The northern face of Pahute Peak contains specific vegetation patterns with stands of aspens, mountain mahogany, and Limber pines.
