1986 Map of Fall Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Death Valley National Monument dominates this desert landscape, where the dramatic elevation change between high peaks and low flats is clearly documented through 1980s-era topography. The Grapevine Mountains rise sharply to the east, dissected by deep drainages like Fall Canyon and Titus Canyon. These alluvial systems carry sediment down toward Mesquite Flat, illustrating the active geological processes that define this arid environment. To the north, Red Wall Canyon cuts through the steep terrain, showing the complex drainage patterns that lead into the valley floor. Compiled from aerial photography taken in the late 1970s and early 1980s, this record preserves the desert wilderness as it stood before many modern management shifts, providing a clear look at the township and range boundaries such as t13s t14s that still grid this expansive terrain.
