1969 Map of Moapa Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Moapa Peak stands as the dramatic high point of the Moapa Mountains in this desert landscape, where the rugged topography drops away toward the expansive flats of Mormon Mesa. The map details a transition from the complex ridgelines and drainages of the Mormon Jacks Pockets to the more gradual slopes leading south. A solitary Sheep Canyon Reservoir appears in the western drainage, a rare water management feature in an otherwise arid environment. Along the northern edge, the Lincoln Co Clark Co line indicates the administrative divide within this portion of the Mojave Desert. The presence of several Jeep Trails snaking through the washes and over ridges highlights the reliance on off-road transit for accessing these remote peaks and canyons during the late 1960s.
