1956 Map of Lanfair Valley

About this map

Mining operations and rugged desert infrastructure define this mid-century survey of the California high desert. The landscape is marked by industrial activity, including the True Blue Mine, California Mine, and the Leiser Ray Mine near Tungsten Flat. These sites are linked by a network of unimproved desert tracks and the historic Old Government Road, which snakes across the terrain toward the Piute Range. The reliance on scarce water sources is evident through the mapping of Hackberry Spring, Vontrigger Spring, and several isolated reservoirs.
