Red Mountain Wilderness, Wilderness area in White Pine County, Nevada, United States.

Red Mountain Wilderness is a protected area in White Pine County covering more than 20,000 acres of volcanic landscape marked by orange-red hills and mountain ranges. The terrain lies within Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest and displays a mix of volcanic formations, limestone escarpments, and pine forests.

This protected area was established through the White Pine County Conservation, Recreation and Development Act in 2006 as a designated wilderness. The designation marked an important step in preserving this volcanic landscape for future generations.

The wilderness lies in the White Pine Range, bordered on the west by the Currant Mountain Wilderness. Its name comes from the red-orange volcanic hills that dominate the terrain, which is covered with pinyon, limber and bristlecone pine. The area is part of the Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest, managed by the U.S. Forest Service.

Visitors should bring detailed maps and sufficient supplies, as motorized vehicles and modern amenities are not available within the area. Preparation for primitive conditions and self-sufficiency is necessary for safe exploration.

The wilderness takes its name from Red Mountain, the red-orange volcanic peak at its centre. It sits beside the Currant Mountain Wilderness, and both were designated by the same 2006 act covering White Pine County. Pinyon, limber and bristlecone pines grow on the volcanic slopes.
