Lake Peak is a 10,922-foot elevation (3,329 m) summit located in Elko County, Nevada, United States.

Lake Peak is part of the Ruby Mountains which are a subset of the Great Basin Ranges.

Precipitation runoff from the mountain's west slope drains to South Fork Humboldt River via Kleckner and North Furlong Creeks, whereas the east slope drains to the Franklin River in Ruby Valley.

Topographic relief is significant as the summit rises 4,700 feet (1,400 meters) above Ruby Valley in four miles (6.4 km).

[4] Lake Peak is set within the Great Basin Desert which has hot summers and cold winters.
