2018 Map of Bodie

About this map

Bodie sits at the heart of this high-elevation landscape, surrounded by the peaks and canyons of the Bodie Hills. This 2018 survey documents the enduring layout of this legendary mining district, where the physical memory of the community is preserved at the Wards Cem, Masonic Cem, and Miners Union Cem on the outskirts of the settlement. The map captures the significant landmarks of the local mineral economy, including Silver Hill and Bodie Bluff, while tracing the early transportation routes like the Bodie Masonic Rd and Bodie Rd. Water sources such as Pearson Spring and Murphy Spring are marked amidst the high peaks of Potato Peak and Mt Biedeman, illustrating the essential resources required for life in this arid, high-altitude environment. The drainage patterns of Clearwater Cr and Bodie Cr further define the natural boundaries of this distinctive corner of Mono County.
