Copper Basin is a basin located between the Copper Mountains and Fox Creek Range of northern Elko County, Nevada, United States.[1][2] The basin, located on the border of the Mountain City and Jarbidge ranger districts within the Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest, is known for its displays of wildflowers during early summer.[3] It is accessed via Elko County Route 748, also known as Charleston-Jarbidge Road, by way of either Charleston or Jarbidge.[4][5]
