Owens Valley settlement patterns are clearly defined in this mid-1980s provisional study, showing the city of Bishop anchored against the eastern slopes of the Sierra Nevada. The map details the complex water management of the region, where the North Fork and South Fork of Bishop Creek converge near the Bishop Indian Reservation. The industrial footprint of the era is evident through several mining operations including the Chipmunk Mine, Rossi Mine, and Bishop Mine, while the southern edge of the quadrangle reaches the thermal waters of Keough Hot Springs.
