Tule is an unincorporated community in Humboldt County, Nevada, United States.[1]
Tule was a station east of Weso on the Southern Pacific Railroad with the first reference from a 1881 map.[2] The name comes from the Nahuatl word "tollin", which means bullrush.[2]
An 1890 book includes Tule in a list of towns and settlements in Humboldt County.[3]
