Nevada is almost entirely within the Basin and Range Province, and is broken up by many north-south mountain ranges. Most of these ranges have endorheic valleys between them, which belies the image portrayed by the term Great Basin.

The state's highest recorded temperature was 125 °F (52 °C) in Laughlin (e...
