1987 Map of Davis Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

Davis Mountain dominates this rugged high-altitude landscape along the border of Nevada and California. The map documents a transition from the steep eastern slopes of the Inyo National Forest down into the northern reaches of Fish Lake Valley. Early industrial and exploration efforts are evidenced by the Red Rock Mine in the northwest and the Mollini Mine Prospect further south, alongside numerous unnamed prospects. Water management and natural springs are vital in this arid environment, marked by a Gaging Station on Chiatovich Creek and several isolated Springs. Small settlements like McNett and Post Meadow sit near the historic Von Schmidt Line, representing the sparse but persistent human footprint in this remote region during the late twentieth century.
