1954 Map of Bullfrog

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

Rhyolite stands as a focal point of this mid-century desert survey, shown as a significant site of former mining activity alongside the Bullfrog (Ruins). The landscape is defined by the extraction economy of the early 20th century, with numerous named claims such as the Montgomery-Shoshone Mine, Original Bullfrog Mine, and Ladd Mine dotting the slopes of Bullfrog Mtn and Rainbow Mtn. The town of Beatty serves as the regional hub, situated in the Oasis Valley near the Amargosa Narrows. A Dismantled Railroad trace reveals the fading industrial connectivity that once linked these remote camps to broader markets. To the southwest, the Von Schmidt Line marks the state boundary within the Death Valley National Monument, while topographic details capture the stark transition from the Amargosa Desert to the high peaks of the Grapevine Mountains.
