1972 Map of Pinyon Mtn

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Piute Mtn and the surrounding high desert ridges defined the local economy of this corner of Kern County in the early 1970s. The landscape is marked by evidence of historical mining activity, including the St John Mine at the base of St John Ridge and the Sunset Mine further east near Pinyon Mtn. Settlement is sparse, characterized primarily by isolated water sources such as Tunnel Spring and Whitney Well, which were critical for ranching and mining operations in this arid environment.
