1985 Map of Chubbuck

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

The remote desert settlement of Chubbuck and its associated Ruins sit at the intersection of industry and isolation in this mid-1980s landscape. Located along the At&Sf rail line, the area is defined by a heavy mining presence, ranging from unnamed Mines and Prospects to the New Frontier Mine within the Kilbeck Hills. To the south, the dry expanse of Cadiz Lake is utilized for its mineral resources, evidenced by the presence of Salt Evaporators. The terrain is a stark contrast between the high relief of Desert Butte and the shifting Sand Dunes of the Cadiz Valley. This map documents a period when the infrastructure for large-scale evaporative salt harvesting and hard-rock prospecting shaped the sparse human footprint in the Mojave.
