	Peavine Peak Peavine Peak, the highest point on Peavine mountain, is located in Washoe County, Nevada, Washoe County Nevada, at the northwest corner of the Truckee Meadows and about due east of the California state. It forms one of the most dominant geographical features in the Reno metropolitan area, Reno/Sparks area. Early prospectors to the mountain discovered wild pea vines growing in the vicinity of Peavine Springs on the northeast flank of the mountain, near Poeville, hence the name. Geology Much of the northern Truckee Meadows is built atop Peavine alluvium, most significantly from just west of Lake Park in Northwest Reno, Nevada, Reno, across the campus of the University of Nevada-Reno, and toward Hug High School, Proctor Hug High School in Northeast Reno. Above these alluvial deposits, the sediments become coarser and are frequently interspersed with diatomaceous material.H. F. Bonham, Jr. and E. C.
