HUMBOLDT-TOIYABE NATIONAL FORESTS
Description
Located in both Nevada and California, lies the Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forests. It is the largest National Forest outside of Alaska, having a net acreage of approximately 3.9 million acres. It often comes as a surprise when sagebrush-dominated rangelands give way to alpine meadows and sparkling streams. You can travel through many life zones while exploring the forest.
