1955 Map of Lead Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

The Bullion Mountains dominate this mid-century survey of the California high desert, revealing a landscape defined by volcanic activity and military utility. Extensive fields of Lava are recorded across the central and eastern portions of the sheet, while the northern reaches include early mining activity at the War Eagle Mine and several scattered Prospects. Much of the territory falls within the Marine Corps Training Center, reflecting the region's mid-century role as a strategic military range. The map documents the primitive infrastructure of the era, marked by a network of trails and a single Jeep Trail that wind through the steep, arid terrain between various survey benchmarks like Vabm 2891 and the VABM 1675 Sign.
