The Worthington Mountains is a small 12 miles (19 km) long north–south trending mountain range in northwestern Lincoln County, Nevada. The range is bounded by the Sand Spring Valley to the west and Garden Valley to the east. The Quinn Canyon Range lies to the northwest, the Golden Gate Range lies to the east and the Timpahute Range lies to the south and southeast. The range has two prominent peaks: Worthington Peak at 8,983 feet (2, 738 m) near the north end and Meeker Peak at 8,766 feet (2, 672 m) near the south end. The surrounding basins have elevations of 4,900 to 5,900 feet (1, 500 to 1, 800 m). There is no surface water and few springs within the range. The Worthington Mountains are within the Basin and Range National Monument, created by President Barack Obama in 2015.
