1951 Map of Keeler
USGS Topo · Published 1957About this map
Keeler sits at the edge of the receding Owens Lake, serving as a focal point for the region's industrial and transport history during the mid-century. The infrastructure of the Southern Pacific railroad and a specialized Tramway underscore the importance of mineral extraction, connecting the town to the nearby Soda Products Plant and extensive Soda Evaporators on the dry lake bed. This network reveals the transition from a traditional rail hub to an industrial landscape focused on chemical and mineral recovery from the Owens Valley's saline deposits.
