1955 Map of Mid Hills

About this map

The high Mojave Desert landscape of the New York Mountains and Woods Mountains dominates this 1950s survey. This era of land use is defined by a reliance on the springs and wells scattered throughout the basins, including Government Holes and Rock Spring, which served as critical stops along the historic Old Government Road. The region's mining legacy is visible in the presence of the Death Valley Mine near the Union Pacific tracks at Cima, as well as the Barnett Mine and Gold Valley Mine further south.
