About this map

Myers Ranch and Russell Camp provide rare points of habitation in this mid-century look at the high desert terrain of the Panamint Range. Located within the boundaries of the Death Valley National Monument and the adjacent Naval Reservation, the area is defined by a rigorous mining history. Evidence of early mineral extraction is scattered throughout, from the Suitcase Mine in the north to the Standard Mine in the southern Slate Range. These operations were often supported by complex infrastructure, including a Dismantled Aerial Cableway near Manly Fall. The landscape is etched with deep drainages like Goler Canyon and South Park Canyon, where essential water sources like Anvil Spring and Sourdough Spring supported prospectors and travelers navigating the high mountain passes, such as Mengel Pass.
