2021 Map of Belleville

About this map

The Excelsior Mountains and Candelaria Hills dominate this high-desert terrain in Nevada's Mineral County. This modern survey illustrates the rugged topography and essential access routes through the arid landscape, including Moho Rd and the winding path of Douglas Rd. The area is characterized by dramatic elevation shifts, marked by geological features like Little Summit in the southwestern portion of the quadrangle. The presence of Belleville Spring provides a rare point of named hydrography in an otherwise dry mountain environment. This map is particularly useful for researchers studying the physical geography of Nevada's basin and range province, showing how historical roads still navigate the complex contours between these two significant mountain systems.
