Geography
Mount Moriah rises over 6000 ft vertical feet above the Snake Valley on its east flank, and the Spring Valley to its west. The summit is the highest point in the Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest.

Immediately to the north is a large flat sub-alpine area called The Table, which supports an ancient stand of Great Basin Bristlecone Pine (Pinus longaeva).

The mountain is about 37 mi east of Ely, the nearest town. U.S. Route 6 and U.S. Route 50 traverse the Sacramento Pass nearby, which divides the northern and southern sections of the Snake Range. To the south of the pass are Great Basin National Park and Wheeler Peak.
