1982 Map of Maturango Peak SE

About this map

The Anthony Mill Ruins stand as a testament to the early industrial efforts in this arid landscape, situated on the western edge of the Panamint Valley. This 1982 provisional survey captures a terrain dominated by shifting geological features, where expansive stretches of Sand and the Alkali Flat create a stark, salt-crusted basin. The presence of the Panamint Valley Crater in the northwest corner highlights the volcanic history of the region, while modern extractive activity is evidenced by a Borrow Pit and various Quarries located across the valley floor. The map’s focus on elevation and drainage patterns reveals the environmental challenges of the Great Basin, mapping the complex alluvial fans that sweep down from the surrounding heights toward the low-lying flats.
