1955 Map of Emerson Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

Emerson Lake and the surrounding high desert basin dominate this mid-century topographical study of the California interior. The landscape is defined by its arid geography and early resource extraction, evidenced by various prospects and shafts like the Blue Ribbon Mine and Crystal Mine dotting the foothills of Hidalgo Mountain. Small-scale settlement is concentrated near Landers, while the surrounding terrain is marked by dry lake beds such as Quackenbush Lake and Means Lake.
