| • | Battle Mountain is an unincorporated community and census-designated place located in Lander County, Nevada. As of the 2000 census, the community had a total population of 2,871. Though it has no legal status as a municipality, it still functions as the county seat of Lander County. Its primary economic base is gold mining and, to a lesser extent, cattle ranching.
Battle Mountain is perhaps best known as having been designated the "armpit of America" in a 2001 Washington Post article. [HTTP ]Battle Mountain has capitalized on this notoriety by staging an annual "Armpit Festival", starting in 2002. Currently the festival is sponsored by Old Spice, and portions of the festival take place in a nearby open pit mine.
