About this map

Death Valley Junction serves as the focal point of this arid borderlands survey, situated where the Amargosa Desert meets the eastern foothills of the Funeral Mountains. The settlement landscape is defined by its industrial and transportation history, evidenced by the Old RR Grade and infrastructure such as a Sub Sta, Landing Strip, and several Tanks. In the flatter reaches of the desert to the east, the Amargosa River creates a drainage pattern leading toward areas of Mud & Alkali. Outside the main junction, the map records the Hog Ranch (Site) and a small Cem, alongside numerous Prospects and Borrow Pit excavations that reflect the region's long-standing mining and material-extraction activities. The state line between Inyo County, California and Nye County, Nevada bisects the northeastern corner of the map near Pyramid peak.
