1985 Map of Anvil Spring Canyon West

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Death Valley National Monument dominates this mid-1980s terrain, revealing a landscape defined by isolated water sources and high-desert mining operations. The central topography is carved by Warm Spring Canyon and Anvil Spring Canyon, where elevation changes are punctuated by numerous natural seeps. These water points, such as Grubstake Spring, Mesquite Spring, and Lost Spring, historically dictated movement through the arid environment. Mining activity is concentrated along the canyon walls and northern reaches, represented by the Warm Spring Mine, Grantham Mine, and the Queen of Sheba Mine. This provisional survey preserves the precise locations of historical workings, including a Mine Dump, and topographic landmarks like Sugarloaf Peak during a period of transition for the federal lands in Death Valley.
