1994 Map of Davis Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1997

About this map

The Von Schmidt Line (1872) carves a historical path through this high-altitude landscape, marking the nineteenth-century effort to define the border between Nevada and California. Rising above the basin, Davis Mountain anchors the rugged terrain within the Inyo National Forest, where the land falls away into the broad expanse of Fish Lake Valley. The map documents a legacy of mountain mineral exploration, featuring the Mollini Mine, Red Rock Mine, and numerous prospects scattered across the slopes near Chiatovich Creek and Indian Creek. Evidence of early surveying remains preserved in specific markers like the Von Schmidts 334 Mile 61 Chain Post near Post Meadow. The settlement at McNett sits on the valley floor, positioned near the junction of mountain drainages and the arid flats of Wildhorse Flat.
