1972 Map of Emerald Mtn

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

The high elevations of the Piute Mountains dominate this 1972 survey, where the rugged topography is marked by a legacy of early California mining and remote ranching. Steep ridgelines like Antimony Ridge and peaks including Weldon Peak and Emerald Mtn define a landscape carved by numerous seasonal drainages, such as Jawbone Canyon and Caliente Canyon. For those tracing local history, the map preserves the location of the Wooden Shoe Annies Ranch (Ruins), a remnant of hardscrabble high-country life.
