Unlike the main crest of the Sierra Nevada to the west of Lake Tahoe, the Carson Range loses its snow much earlier (April), and gains it much later (December).

In fact, it receives about half the snowfall as mountains west of the lake.

Travel between Lake Tahoe and Carson City is possible via US 50 over Spooner Summit, or NV 207 over Daggett Pass.

Winding through the northern half of the range lies NV 431, connecting Incline Village to Reno over Mount Rose Summit.
