Old Woman Mountains dominate the central landscape of this Mojave Desert region, where mining and rail infrastructure defined the mid-century economy. The Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad cuts across the southern flats, serving the small siding of Milligan and the nearby Fishel. This transport corridor was essential for industrial operations like the Salt Evaporators situated on the edge of the Danby Lake playa.
