About this map

Station Peak and the high ridges of the White-Inyo Range dominate this 2015 survey of the borderlands between Nevada and California. The map documents a stark landscape where the Inyo National Forest meets the lower elevations of the Owens Valley and Fish Lake Valley. Numerous drainages, including Cottonwood Cr and Indian Garden Cr, carve through the complex terrain, illustrating the hydrologic network that defines this arid environment.

A sparse network of roads like Windmill Rd and Serfoss Rd provides access to the eastern valley floor, while much of the western portion remains roadless and high-elevation. The map clearly delineates the boundary between Esmeralda County, Nevada, and Mono County, California, showing how these political lines intersect with physical landmarks such as Red Mtn. This record is essential for understanding the modern topographic state of these protected public lands and the remote road networks serving the high desert basins.
