2012 Map of Moor Summit

About this map

Moor Summit and Cedar Pass serve as the primary topographical gateways through this high-altitude landscape in Elko County. The small settlement of Moor sits at the northern end of the map, adjacent to the modern Moor Interchange. This area is defined by the steep transition from the Wood Hills to the west toward the prominent Little Cedar Mountain in the south. Life in this arid basin is anchored by scattered water sources like Independence Springs and Wadel Spring. The transportation network is dominated by a major east-west corridor, supported by local routes such as Moor Rd and FR 435 Rd, which navigate the various gaps and passes that have historically funneled travel through this portion of the Great Basin.
