1987 Map of East of Waucoba Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

Saline Range peaks dominate this high-desert landscape, where steep topography transitions into the northern reaches of the Saline Valley. This 1987 edition, based on photography from the early 1980s, reveals a stark wilderness defined by dramatic elevation changes rather than human settlement. In this arid environment, water is a critical and rare element, marked notably by several Falls that suggest seasonal runoff or spring-fed drainages cutting through the rocky canyons. The northwestern corner is defined by the Waucoba Wash, a primary drainage feature that orients the surrounding complex terrain. Aside from a few unimproved trails and the boundary line between townships T 11 S and T 12 S, the area remains remarkably undeveloped, serving as a clear record of the geological character of this Inyo County interior.
