Pine Grove

Nevada is ghost-town central: the Comstock made it a state, and a century of played-out bonanzas kept it in ruins.

The Pine Grove Hills are a mountain range in Lyon County, Nevada. The highest point in the range is the summit of Bald Mountain at 9,549 ft (2,911 m).

The on-the-ground condition of Pine Grove is unverified — it's listed here with unknown status. That could mean standing buildings, or an empty field. Go prepared for either, and consider sharing what you find so the record improves.

Nobody has confirmed the access situation, so treat any visit as reconnaissance: verify land ownership first, and be ready to admire from the road.

Here's the honest truth: access to Pine Grove is unverified. We couldn't confirm whether the site sits on public land, private property, or something in between — so verify land ownership and local rules before visiting, and respect private property at all times.

Ghost-town etiquette is simple: take only photographs. Removing artifacts is illegal on public lands and disrespectful everywhere else — and on federal land it can be a serious offense.
