Lamoille
is a charming little community located in Elko County at the foothills of the Ruby Mountains of northern Nevada. It sits at an elevation of 5,889 feet about 17 miles east of the town of Elko. Lamoille is the major getaway to the mountains via the National Forest Scenic Byway in the Lamoille Canyon. A small church constructed in 1907 on the east side of the community is still in use today. The town of Lamoille offers a dinner house and 3-room hotel that has been a long-time business in the town. For many years, this was a remote, secluded area with few visitors. That changed with the coming of heli-skiing. Now, in the wintertime, Lamoille becomes a mini-tourist town due to the proximity to the Ruby Mountain Heli-Ski. Rudy Mountain is one of only two heli-ski operations in the west and it attracts visitors from all over the world. It's not inexpensive, so expect to see quite a diverse crowd here, including those used to skiing in Aspen, Europe, New Zealand or South America. Other attractions near Lamoille include scenic Canyon Road. This road has some of the most beautiful scenery in the west and is considered one of Nevada's crown jewels. Activities in the area include fishing, hiking and picnicking.

Lamoille Weather & Climate
|
|
|
|
Northeast Nevada has a semi arid climate. The principal climatic features are bright sunshine, small annual precipitation, (averaging nine inches in the valleys and deserts) heavy snowfall in the higher mountains, clean, dry air, and exceptionally large daily ranges of temperature. This is due to strong surface heating during the day and rapid nighttime cooling because of the dry air. Even after the hottest days, the nights are usually cool. Summer temperatures are generally in the 90s. Sometimes they soar above 100° F, but more frequently in the south. Humidity is usually very low. Freezes begin early in the autumn and continues until late in the spring. The freeze-free season varies from less than 70 days in the northeast to about 140 days in the west and south-central areas, to over 225 in the south.
