About this map

Death Valley dominates this 1952 field-checked survey, capturing the stark landscape of the eastern Mojave. The map centers on the Amargosa River basin, reaching the lowest elevation in the U.S. at 282 feet below sea level. Survival in this environment is marked by scattered water sources like Bennetts Well, Eagle Borax Spring, and Tule Spring, which provided essential stops for early travelers and prospectors.
