The Nightingale Mountains are a north–south trending range located along the western border of Pershing County and extending into the northeastern corner of Washoe County.

[1][2] The site of Nightingale and its large tungsten mine (abandoned in the 1950s) are at the southern end of the east slope.

[3] The Nightingale Mountains are named for Alanson W. Nightingill who was Captain of Company C during the 1860 Paiute War and later the first state controller of Nevada.
