2018 Map of Eagle Mountain

About this map

Death Valley National Park encompasses much of this desert landscape, where the ephemeral Amargosa River cuts through the arid basin. The small settlement of Evelyn sits along Highway 127, representing a rare pocket of human habitation in a region dominated by prominent geological features. Elevation changes are marked by the Eagle Mtn peak and the foothills of the Greenwater Range to the southwest. This 2018 survey illustrates the vast emptiness of the Mojave Desert and the modern road network that provides access through this corridor between mountain ranges. The mapping detail highlights the contrast between the low-lying river wash and the rising topography of the surrounding desert uplands.
