1963 Map of Hexie Mountains

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

Mining operations and desert water sources define this landscape within the Joshua Tree National Monument during the early 1960s. The northern reaches are dominated by the Pinto Mountains, where scattered claims like the Paymaster Mine and Old Swede Mine sit near the Pinto Basin. These sites represent the region's hard-rock prospecting history, connected by a network of jeep trails and unimproved roads that navigate the wash-cut terrain.
