North Jackson Mountains Wilderness, Protected wilderness area in Humboldt County, Nevada, United States.

The North Jackson Mountains extend across 20,000 acres of Nevada terrain, featuring steep ridges and deep canyons reaching elevations above 9,000 feet.

The federal government designated this region as a protected wilderness to maintain its natural state and preserve the ecological systems for future generations.

Native American tribes utilized these mountain lands for centuries, leaving behind archaeological evidence of their presence throughout the landscape.

Visitors need to bring detailed maps and adequate water supplies, as the wilderness contains limited marked trails and no developed facilities.

The mountain terrain contains geological formations from ancient volcanic activity, providing habitat for California bighorn sheep and pronghorn antelope.
