About this map

The Eagle Mountains and Pinto Mtns dominate this mid-century wartime survey, revealing a landscape defined by desert mining operations and early park boundaries. Large portions of the terrain fall within the Joshua Tree National Monument, where remote outposts like Mission Well and Eagle Tank provided critical water sources in the arid Pinto Basin. The map captures the industrial footprint of the era, showing the Sunrise Mill and several active claims including the Mystery Mine and Black Eagle Mine.
