1953 Map of Mt. Morrison

Mineral exploration remains etched into the landscape, evidenced by the Monte Cristo Mine and Mammoth Consolidated Mine near the older settlements of Old Mammoth and Mill City. To the east, the terrain opens into the Little Antelope Valley and the thermal features of Casa Diablo Hot Sprs. Ranching history is preserved through the Arcularius Ranch and Cashbaugh Ranch along the upper Owens River, providing a look at the varied land use in Mono County before modern expansion.
