2018 Map of Daylight Pass

About this map

Death Valley National Park encompasses the rugged divide between the Grapevine Mountains and the Funeral Mountains in this high-desert survey. Centered on Daylight Pass, the terrain is defined by extreme elevation changes, dropping from the heights of Corkscrew Peak down into the deep incision of Boundary Canyon. Rare water sources like Willow Spring and Daylight Spring are critical landmarks in a landscape that transitions from the Mojave Desert into the Amargosa Desert. Route 374 serves as the primary artery through the pass, crossing the state line between Inyo County, California, and Nye County, Nevada. The map captures a topography where complex township and range lines meet the irregular natural boundaries of the national park, highlighting the remote geography of the borderlands.
