context_page_description: In the U.S. state of Nevada, U.S. Route 93 Alternate is an alternate route of U.S. Route 93 located in the northeast part of the state. It connects Lages Station to Wells via the town of West Wendover.
context_section_description: US 93 Alt. begins at Lages Station in northern White Pine County. As mainline US 93 proceeds north, Alt 93 heads more northeast, entering Elko County shortly after leaving the junction. The route continues northeast, passing through the Antelope Range and the Goshute Mountains, where it ascends White Horse Pass (elevation 6,031 feet (1,838 m)). Descending the pass, US 93 Alternate turns more northward to follow the base of the Goshute Mountains towards West Wendover.
  Entering West Wendover, US 93 Alt. intersects Wendover Boulevard (Interstate 80 Business). The highway follows the business route west and then north approximately 0.28 miles (0.45 km) to intersect Interstate 80. US 93 Alt then joins I-80 and travels west concurrently with the Interstate for 59 miles (95 km). US 93 Alt. comes to an end in the city of Wells, reuniting with mainline US 93 at the I-80 East Wells interchange (exit 352).
