Troy NV would appear to be an abandoned mining town located in the Humboldt National Forest in central Nevada. According to a National Forest Service map, the only road to the town is for 4WD vehicles only. The nearby mountain, Troy Peak, has an elevation of 11, 298 ft. It may be that this Troy has the highest elevation. A rather complete history is available from the US Forest Service.

From Nevada Ghost Towns.

Silver was discovered on the Grant Range in May of 1867. By that summer the camp Troy was founded. Later that year Old English Gold Corporation bought up several claims and proceeded to work them. By 1871 Troy had two stores,a boarding house, blacksmith shop, school with a post office and 70 miners with families. The English company spent $500,000 in mining and building a20-stamp mill with furnaces. But as the old story go's low-grade ore produced the fall of Troy. The mill was moved to Ward in White Pine County in 1872. Troy had it's revivals in the 1900's and during 1936-1946.
