1956 Map of Ivanpah

About this map

Nipton and the high desert outposts of Ivanpah and Vanderbilt anchor this mid-century topographic survey of the California-Nevada borderlands. The arid landscape is defined by the Union Pacific railroad corridor, which links small sidings like Brant and Moore across the valley floor. Mining activity is heavily concentrated in the surrounding peaks, including the Carbonate King Mine near Kokoweef Peak and the Morning Star Mine along the eastern slopes of the Ivanpah Mountains.
