At 13,063 feet, Wheeler Peak is the second-highest summit in the state of Nevada. The best time for summiting is from Mid-June through September, depending on snowlevel.
To get there, start your hike either at the official trailhead about one-half mile from Wheeler Peak Campground or using the Bristlecone/Alpine Lakes Loop trailhead.
