About this map

Negit Island rises from the volcanic waters of Mono Lake in this 2015 study of the Eastern Sierra landscape. The map details a complex web of water management and ranching history, illustrated by the Dechambeau R. Pipeline and the proximity of the Conway Ranch Rd to the shoreline. The northern shore of the lake is marked by geothermal and geologic activity, with Hot Spring and the prominent Black Point formation overlooking the basin.

Transport through the Mono Valley is defined by a network of utilitarian routes like Pole Line Rd and Cemetary Road, while the high country to the north transitions into the Inyo National Forest. Features such as the Cinder Pit and various springs, including Coyote Spring and Waford Spring, indicate a landscape where natural resources and early 21st-century infrastructure meet against the backdrop of the Bridgeport Canyon.
