1956 Map of Fales Hot Springs

USGS Topo · Published 1960

About this map

The West Walker River carves a deep path through the high country of the Toiyabe National Forest on this mid-century survey of the California-Nevada border. This area was a hub of mining and transit, evidenced by the cluster of camps and mining operations like the Tiger Mines, Kentuck Mine, and Montague Mine near the base of Mt Patterson. High-elevation settlements such as Belfort and Burcham illustrate the scattered nature of early development in the Mono County backcountry, while Sonora Junction Hardy Station marks a critical historical crossroads for travelers moving toward the Sierra crest.
