1987 Map of Cerro Gordo Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

Mining operations dominate the high elevations of the Inyo Mountains in this 1980s survey, centered on the storied silver and lead deposits of the Cerro Gordo Mine. The landscape is a network of industrial excavations and infrastructure, including the Omega Tunnel, Estelle Tunnel, and a Tram tower, alongside numerous unnamed prospects and mine dumps. At an elevation of over 9,000 feet, Cerro Gordo Peak towers over the surrounding terrain, where water sources like Mexican Spring and Cerro Gordo Spring were critical for both life and industry in this arid environment.
