1994 Map of Pat Keyes Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 1997

About this map

The Inyo Mountains dominate the western terrain of this map, falling sharply toward the floor of the Saline Valley to the east. This transition is marked by deep drainage systems such as Paiute Canyon, Pat Keyes Canyon, and McElvoy Canyon. Evidence of historical industry and difficult logistics is present in the numerous prospects and the Grey Eagle Mine, which is linked to lower elevations by a cableway. Local resource use and accessibility in this arid environment are highlighted by the presence of Badwater Springs and a landing strip near Willow Creek Camp. Most of the high ground is managed under the Inyo National Forest and the Inyo Mountains Wilderness, reflecting the region's preservation within the larger California desert landscape during the late twentieth century.
