1994 Map of Rovana

USGS Topo · Published 1997

About this map

Round Valley is the focal point of this mid-1990s survey, where the dramatic elevation change between the Sherwin Hill slopes and the Volcanic Tableland dictates the area's infrastructure. The community of Rovana sits at the foot of the mountains, defined by its proximity to Pine Creek and the presence of specialized local landmarks like the Ranch Sewage Disposal Pond. To the east, the Owens River Gorge snakes through the terrain, leading toward the Pleasant Valley Reservoir. This landscape reflects a careful management of water and energy resources, evidenced by the prominent Aqueduct, a Powerhouse near Birchim Canyon, and a Surge Tank overlooking the gorge. Industrial history is etched into the hillsides at the Western X Mine within the Tungsten Hills, while the presence of the Round Valley School and the Paradise Camp settlement shows the established residential and recreational pockets of the Owens Valley during this era.
