1948 Map of Avawatz Pass

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

Death Valley dominates the northern reaches of this map, where the arid basin meets the formidable Ibex Hills and the shifting sands of the Ibex Dunes. In this post-war survey, the landscape is defined by the extraction of minerals and the essential search for water. Notable mining operations such as the Ibex Mine, Superior Mine, and Whiteside Mine are positioned against the steep slopes, while the presence of Saratoga Spr and Old Mormon Spr highlights the critical importance of reliable water sources in the high desert.
