2018 Map of Mono Mills

About this map

Mono Mills sits at the southern reach of the Mono Basin, a landscape defined by the transition from the shore of Mono Lake to the rising elevations of the Inyo National Forest. This 2018 survey details a network of historical routes and logging-era remnants, including the trace of the Old Rail Road that once served the timber industry. The hydrology of the area is marked by seasonal and perennial features such as Simons Spring along the eastern lakeshore and Dry Cr winding through the alluvial terrain. High-altitude flats like Big Sand Flat are accessible via established forest routes including the Mc Pherson Grade and Pilot Springs. The map documents numerous specialized access roads like the Mono Mills Connection and the Mono Mills Loop, reflecting the ongoing management and recreational use of this part of Mono County.
