are local hot spots; there is also a number of fast food restaurants.
In Elko, we enjoy all four seasons. During the winter we get a good amount of snow and are able to enjoy various snow activities.

Summers are warm enough to enjoy swimming and other outside activities but are not unbearably hot. Fall, my personal favorite, are majestic in Elko. All the trees begin changing and looking up into the Ruby Mountains you are able to see all the different colors associated with fall.
One thing of the things I enjoy most about Elko is that we are right in the middle between Reno, Nevada and Salt Lake City, Utah. Both of these cities offer anything one could possibly need without having to drive an obscene distance.
