2015 Map of Lone Pine

About this map

The Alabama Hills and the iconic granite formations of Movie Flat dominate the western landscape of this Owens Valley study, providing a look at the region’s topography before reaching the eastern slopes of the Sierra Nevada. Centered on the town of Lone Pine, the map details a sophisticated water management system defined by the Los Angeles Aqueduct and numerous mountain runoff channels like Tuttle Cr and Lubken Cr. Genealogists will find significant local history in the three burial sites near the town center: Mount Whitney Cem, Old Lone Pine Cem, and Pioneer Cem. The valley floor transitions from the developed town grid and Lone Pine Airport to the southern expanse of Owens Lake, while the eastern portion of the map is defined by the wandering path of the Owens River. Land use is further characterized by the boundaries of the Inyo National Forest and local landmarks like Diaz Lake.
