1987 Map of Teakettle Junction

About this map

Teakettle Junction serves as the central navigational hub for this high-desert landscape within Death Valley National Monument. Recorded during the 1980s, the terrain is defined by the convergence of the Last Chance Range and the Cottonwood Mts, which frame the broad expanse of Racetrack Valley. The map documents a sparse human imprint on a formidable environment, primarily characterized by the primitive road network and various Prospects located near the valley floor. These mineral explorations hint at the region's intermittent history of mining activity, while the elevation contours illustrate the steep, dramatic rises that isolate this portion of the monument from more traveled routes.
