Jarbidge is an unincorporated community in Elko County, Nevada, United States.[1] Located at the bottom of the Jarbidge River's canyon near the north end of the Jarbidge Mountains, it lies within the Jarbidge Ranger District of the Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest and is near the northwest edge of the Jarbidge Wilderness, approximately 10 miles (16 km) south of the Idaho–Nevada border.[3]
Jarbidge, along with the rest of Nevada except for the city of West Wendover, is legally in the Pacific Time Zone,[4] but, along with other Idaho border towns such as Jackpot, Mountain City and Owyhee, unofficially observes the Mountain Time Zone due to closer proximity to and greater connections with towns in southern Idaho.[5] Jarbidge is popular locally with hunters and campers with many campsites available in the area and high populations of elk.[6]
