The Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest (HTNF), currently led by Robert L. Vaught, the Forest Supervisor, is the only U.S. National Forest located in the U.S. state of Nevada. With an area of 6.3 million acres (25,000 km²), it is the largest National Forest of the United States outside of Alaska. Its 10 ranger districts are scattered across the many mountain ranges in Nevada, from the Santa Rosa Range in the north to the Spring Mountains near Las Vegas in the south. A small part of the forest is actually in eastern California, in the areas around Bridgeport and Markleeville.
