1952 Map of Chloride Cliff

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

Chloride Cliff towers over the stark landscape of the Funeral Mountains, marking a region defined by high-desert mining and early park administration during the mid-20th century. This 1952 field survey captures the isolated Chloride City and the Keane Wonder Mine (Abandoned), which reflect the area's hard-rock mining legacy. The transition from extraction to conservation is evident with the presence of the National Park Service Hdqrs and Park Village near the base of the range.
