2021 Map of Talc City Hills
USGS Topo · Published 2021About this map
The high desert landscape of the Mojave Desert unfolds across this Inyo County survey, defined by the dry upland terrain of the Talc City Hills and the Lower Centennial Flat. This region is a gateway to one of the country's most extreme environments, with the northwestern edge of Death Valley National Park reaching into the corner of the map. The geography here is marked by significant elevation changes, from the depths of Black Rock Canyon to the heights of the Coso Range. Historical access to these arid hills is traced via rugged thoroughfares like Saline Valley Rd, Talc City Rd, and the Talc City Cutoff, which connect isolated points such as Eagle Point. The presence of Black Springs at the base of the Coso Range highlights the vital importance of water sources in this dry landscape.
