History

The early history of the community and surrounding area is summarized in a nearby highway marker:

Lamoille is nestled off the western flanks of the Ruby Mountains at the end of Nevada State Route 227, and is the principal gateway to this range via the National Forest Scenic Byway up Lamoille Canyon. In 1907 a small church was constructed on the east side of the community, and is still in use today.

Former Disney president and good friend of Clint Eastwood, Frank Wells, died in a helicopter crash here in the Nevada Ruby Mountains.
