1967 Map of El Paso Peaks

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

Yellow Aster Mill (Ruins) stands as a landmark of the region's industrial past, situated near Goler Heights where the high desert meets the El Paso Mountains. This 1960s landscape is defined by its mining and transit history, featuring a network of isolated water sources like Willow Spring Well and Benson Well that were vital for survival in this arid terrain. The Southern Pacific railroad cuts through the southern reaches, connecting the small settlement of Rand with the broader freight network. The map reveals the deep-cut topography of the area, from Fiddler Gulch to the Summit Range, while multiple gravel pits and mines indicate active resource extraction. Evidence of earlier transportation eras remains visible through the Old Railroad Grade, tracing a path that diverges from the mid-century infrastructure.
