1943 Map of Saltdale
USGS Topo · Published 1956About this map
The arid landscape of the Mojave Desert is defined here by the vast expanse of Koehn Dry Lake, where commercial activity centered on the Salt Ponds near the settlement of Saltdale. The industrial character of the mid-1940s is evident in the network of mining operations scattered throughout the El Paso Mountains, including the Snowhite Mine and Bond Buyer Mine. These remote sites were connected to the wider region via the Southern Pacific railroad, which served small desert outposts like Garlock and Cantil.
