This live stream looks out over the Owyhee area of northern Nevada, a remote corner of high desert at about 1,634 metres above sea level. It suits anyone curious about open rangeland, big skies and changing light across the basin and ranges. Current conditions and the forecast sit right beside the player.

About the Owyhee area

Owyhee lies in the Great Basin, the vast region of parallel mountain ranges and dry valleys that stretches across most of Nevada. The landscape is shaped by sagebrush plains, low mountains and wide horizons, with few towns and long distances between them. Its name is tied to the nearby Owyhee River and to the Owyhee country that runs into Idaho and Oregon, which gives the area a distinctly frontier character.

What to watch on the camera

Because the stream is an open live view of high country, the most rewarding moments are usually early morning and late afternoon, when low sun brings out the texture of the hills and casts long shadows. Cloud shadows moving across the ridges, summer thunderstorms building over the mountains and winter snow on the peaks are typical changes to look for, depending on the view and the season.

Climate and getting around

The Great Basin is dry and sunny for most of the year, with hot summer days and cold nights, while winters bring snow and freezing temperatures at this elevation. Late spring and early autumn are generally the most comfortable seasons for travel. The nearby cameras in Elko, Primeaux, Oasis and Boise give a wider picture of the region's weather and terrain.
