About Humboldt Lake
Humboldt Lake covers about 8,947 acres in Churchill County, Pershing County, Nevada and is classed as a natural lake.
We have not matched Humboldt Lake to a public USGS level gauge, so this page leans on wind and weather from the National Weather Service forecast grid over the lake. If you know of a gauge or a lake association that publishes levels, tell us and we will add it.
It is big enough for a proper sail but small enough that waves rarely get serious. Gusts off the shoreline are usually the bigger story than wave height.
The go or no-go calls above are a starting point, not a guarantee. Read how we score conditions, and always check local rules and posted warnings before you launch.
