Lincoln Peak (Nevada)

Lincoln Peak is an 11,597-foot elevation (3,535 m) mountain summit in White Pine County, Nevada, United States.

[1] Topographic relief is significant as the summit rises 3,600 feet (1,097 meters) above Lincoln Canyon in 1.35 miles (2.17 km) and over 5,600 feet (1,707 meters) above Spring Valley in five miles (8.0 km).

The Highland Ridge Trail traverses the west slope of the peak, approximately 600 feet below the summit.

Lincoln Peak is set within the Great Basin Desert which has hot summers and cold winters.

Due to the high elevation and aridity, temperatures drop sharply after sunset.
