About this map

The Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad corridor anchors this mid-1980s look at the high desert, connecting a string of remote outposts from Amboy to Goffs. The landscape is a study in arid geography, defined by broad basins like the Fenner Valley and Clipper Valley sandwiched between prominent ranges such as the Bristol Mountains and Old Woman Mountains. At the southern edge, the expansive dry bed of Bristol Lake sits near the rail line, while to the north, the Devils Playground and Kelso Dunes showcase the shifting sands of the region.
