1988 Map of Devils Speedway

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

Death Valley National Monument reveals a stark, arid landscape where high desert peaks descend into the low-lying reaches of the Basin. This 1988 survey focuses on the unique corridor of the Devils Speedway, an unpaved route cutting across the floor toward the Middle Course. The terrain is characterized by massive alluvial fans emerging from Trail Canyon and Death Valley Canyon, which spill into the expansive Salt Flat and areas of Mud And Alkali. This map highlights the precarious balance of desert travel, marking a high-clearance 4wd Trail as the primary means of navigating the western slopes. Surveyed just before the area's designation was changed to a National Park, the map documents the administrative boundaries of the San Bernardino Meridian and the complex topography of one of the lowest points in North America.
