1956 Map of Ivanpah

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

Mining and rail activity define this mid-century high desert landscape along the California and Nevada border. The Union Pacific railroad cuts a diagonal path through the valley, serving small stops like Nipton, Moore, and Brant. To the east, the New York Mountains and Ivanpah Mountains are heavily marked by the region's hard-rock extraction history. Industrial sites such as the Carbonate King Mine near Kokoweef Peak and the Morning Star Mine sit among numerous shafts and prospects.
