2015 Map of East of Owl Lake

About this map

Death Valley National Park encompasses the central portion of this 2015 survey, where the arid floor of Death Valley meets the high elevations of the Owlshead Mountains. The landscape is defined by its dramatic verticality, as the western slopes of the range drop sharply into the basin. To the northeast, the ephemeral course of the Amargosa River traces through the desert floor, reflecting the unique hydrological patterns of the northern Mojave Desert. This survey documents the intersection of several township and range boundaries, including t19n r3e and t19n r4e, providing a precise look at the land survey system in one of the most extreme environments in the United States. Further south, the isolated peak of Round Mtn stands as a distinct landmark against the surrounding terrain.
