1986 Map of Benton Hot Springs

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Benton Hot Springs serves as a focal point in this high-desert landscape of eastern California, where the thermal features of the Benton Valley meet the rising slopes of the Benton Range. The map documents a significant industrial footprint through numerous Pumice Quarries and scattered Prospects, particularly along Blind Spring Hill and the surrounding volcanic terrain. To the west, the Adobe Valley provides a stark contrast with its broad expanse and the distinctive Black Lake, while the deeply incised Klondike Canyon and Comanche Gulch define the drainage patterns of the Inyo National Forest. Local history is preserved in small details like the Cem near the hot springs and the secluded Watterson Meadow to the south, highlighting the small-scale settlement and ranching that persisted alongside the region's mining interests.
