1987 Map of Saline Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

Saline Range and the high desert elevations of Inyo County dominate this 1987 provisional survey, where dramatic vertical relief defines the eastern California landscape. The topography is anchored by the prominent Saline Peak, rising sharply above the expansive floor of Saline Valley to the east. This map captures a region primarily accessible via unpaved 4wd routes, reflecting the isolation of the Great Basin terrain during the late twentieth century. Unlike more developed areas, this quadrangle focuses on natural landmarks like Black Top, offering a precise record of the physical geography and township boundaries including T 12 S and R 39 E. The survey represents the area as it was documented through aerial photography in the early 1980s, preserving the state of these remote desert corridors before any further modern mapping updates.
