About this map

Indian Wells Valley and the northern reaches of the El Paso Mountains dominate this 1967 survey, capturing a landscape defined by industrial extraction and remote desert habitation. The map provides a detailed record of mining operations such as the Cudahy Old Dutch Cleanser Mine and the Copper Basin Mine, alongside the intriguing Burro Schmidts Tunnel. These features, coupled with the Cudahy Camp (Site) and Bickel Camp, suggest a persistent human presence focused on the mineral wealth found within Last Chance Canyon and the surrounding Red Buttes.
