1990 Map of Moody Peak

About this map

Collins Hotel sits as a solitary man-made landmark at the foot of the high ridges in this section of the Nevada high desert. The map area is dominated by the steep, rising topography of Moody Mountain, culminating at the prominent Moody Peak. This remote landscape, surveyed near the end of the twentieth century, reveals a sparse network of 4wd tracks that represent the only reliable passage through the high-elevation terrain. Water sources are critical points on this map, with several named locations such as Mahogany Spring, Moody Spring, and a designated Well providing life-sustaining stops in an otherwise arid environment. The presence of the Moody Mtn mine site indicates a history of mineral exploration or extraction occurring alongside these essential water features and historical structures.
