1958 Map of Bodie

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

The high desert landscape of the Bodie Hills dominates this 1958 topographic study, captured shortly before the region’s legendary mining sites were further preserved. The northeast corner centers on the historic mining district near Bodie Bluff and Silver Hill, where the Bodie Cem and the Red Cloud Mine remain as physical markers of the 19th-century boom. The mapping of the Geiser Grade and various prospects illustrates the intensive extraction history that defined this area. To the south, the waters of Mono Lake emerge, featuring Paoha Island and Negit Island. A series of ranching operations, such as Mormon Ranch and Conway Ranch, indicate the agricultural life that persisted in the lower meadows and valleys like Mono Valley and Sinnamon Meadow.
