The Nevada Trail is an original 607.3-mile backpacking journey across the Silver State. Nevada has many claims. Among them is that it has more natural hot springs and mountain ranges than any other state. Crossing over these mountain ranges on foot, at times with no trail to follow, is sure to be an unforgettable adventure in nature. This trail visits alpine lakes, pristine backcountry creeks, and incredible hot springs. To access these desert oases, the NVT follows scenic paths, old wagon tracks, and wild horse trails. At other times it travels cross-country directly on top of the ranges - also known as ridge-running. Visit several historic resupply towns before reaching the border of Idaho then join The Idaho Soaktennial Trail and continue thru-soaking your way to Canada, following The Hot Springs Trail. This official guidebook provides a complete set of detailed and updated maps plus logistics for the trail, including: - Safety Concerns - First-hand Advice & Tips - Hot & Cold Spring Water Sources - Official Options & Detours - Resupply Options & Supplies - Websites For Planning The Nevada Trail has large views, spectacular skies, and an abundance of wildlife.
