1987 Map of Blanco Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1994

About this map

Ancient Bristlecone Pine Forest dominates the high-altitude landscape of the White Mountains within the Inyo National Forest. This 1980s survey captures a region of significant scientific and geological interest, featuring the White Mountain Research Station Crooked Creek Laboratory at the northern end of the map. The terrain is defined by high peaks such as Blanco Mtn and Campito Mountain, with deep drainages including Silver Canyon and Wyman Creek cutting through the slopes. Evidence of high-country exploration and infrastructure appears in the form of multiple prospects, the Mexican Mine, and a wooden pole trans line traversing the difficult topography near Poleta Canyon. Public use is anchored by the Schulman Grove Picnic Area and numerous springs like Coldwater Spring, essential for any activity in this arid, elevated environment.
