1967 Map of El Paso Peaks

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

The El Paso Mountains and Summit Range dominate the northern landscape of this Mojave Desert survey, where deep drainages like Goler Gulch and Fiddler Gulch cut through the high terrain toward the Fremont Valley. The region reflects a significant mining and industrial history, evidenced by the Yellow Astor Mill (Ruins) and various gravel pits near Rand. Mining-era infrastructure is well-documented, with the Southern Pacific railroad skirting the southern slopes and an old railroad grade visible to the east near Searles. Settlement is sparse, clustered at points like Goler Heights and Garden City Station, or at remote water sources such as Haggin Well and Rinaldi Well. The presence of the Garlock Road and numerous tracks, including the Randsburg Road, suggests a network shaped by mineral extraction and the logistical needs of desert transit in the mid-1960s.
