1951 Map of Maturango Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1952

About this map

Mining operations dominated the eastern slopes of the Argus Range in the early 1950s, a period when base and precious metal extraction remained central to the economy of this Inyo County region. The map reveals a high concentration of named prospects and workings, including the Defense Mine, Minnietta Mine, and St George Mines, clustered near the precipitous canyons. Transportation through the arid flats of the Panamint Valley is marked by the historic Nadeau Trail and Indian Ranch Road, which skirt the edges of the mountains.
