1952 Map of Emigrant Canyon

About this map

Mining operations and remote desert outposts define the high-altitude landscape of Death Valley National Monument as it appeared in the early 1950s. The settlements of Skidoo and Harrisburg stand as critical points of reference in a terrain marked by deep canyons and prominent summits like Tucki Mountain and Wildrose Peak. This survey provides a meticulous record of the early infrastructure used to navigate the Panamint Mountains, including the Old Toll Road and the Approximate Route of what would become State Route 190.
