About this map

Paymaster Mine and the Oro Fino Mine anchor the eastern slopes of the range on this desert sheet, marking a legacy of extraction in the Mojave. This arid landscape is defined by the stark transition from the broad, open flats to the elevated terrain of Cowhole Mountain and Little Cowhole Mountain. Water, though scarce, is traced through features like Willow Wash and man-made infrastructure such as Tank Eight and Tank Nine, which were essential for cattle or mining operations in this high-heat environment. A long fence line cuts across the basin, indicating grazing boundaries or land management in San Bernardino County. In the south, a lonely Prospect suggests the persistent search for mineral wealth that characterized this region's historical development.
