About this map

Death Valley National Monument reveals a stark landscape of elevation extremes and geological transition in this mid-century study. The massive rise of the Cottonwood Mountains and Panamint Mountains dominates the western half, peaking at Tin Mountain, while the eastern portion drops into the dramatic Death Valley (Depression). This map records the vital water sources and early infrastructure necessary for desert travel during the era, including several remote springs such as Burro Spring, Quartz Spring, and Rest Spring.
