2018 Map of Lower Warm Springs

About this map

Lower Warm Springs and Palm Spring sit as critical water points within this arid expanse of the Mojave Desert. Located inside Death Valley National Park, the landscape is defined by the stark transition from the high elevations of the Saline Range down to the low-lying reaches of the Saline Valley. The drainage patterns of Waucoba Wash illustrate the complex hydraulic movement through the basin, eventually leading toward the prominent sandy features of The Dunes. This modern topographic survey highlights the intersection of extreme elevation changes and the sparse natural springs that have historically dictated travel and survival routes in this portion of Inyo County. The map provides a precise layout of the township and range boundaries that grid this otherwise desolate terrain.
