1994 Map of Bishop
USGS Topo · Published 1997About this map
The Owens Valley landscape in the mid-1990s is defined by a striking contrast between the concentrated settlement of Bishop and the expansive reach of the Inyo National Forest. This survey captures the town’s established civic infrastructure, from the Bishop High Sch and Hospital to the Tri-County Fairgrounds and the Bishop Paiute Indian Reservation. The mapping details the critical water management systems of the region, including the Owens River, various unnamed aqueducts, and the Penstock near Bishop Creek. Cultural history is preserved through the location of the Pioneer Cem and Sunland Cem, while the industrial past of the High Sierra foothills is evident in the Tungsten City Road and mining remains like the Yancy Mine. To the south, Keough Hot Springs stands as a notable landmark at the edge of the valley floor.
