1982 Map of Tungsten Hills

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

Tungsten Hills rise sharply above the Owens Valley floor, defined by a mid-century mining landscape that includes the Tungsten Blue Mine, Jackrabbit Mine, and Aeroplane Mine. The terrain is marked by the industrial infrastructure of extraction, featuring a Tailings Pond near McGee Creek and several prospect pits scattered across the eastern slopes. This 1982 map records the complex water management systems of the region, including an Aqueduct and penstock lines that traverse the eastern foothills near Bishop Creek.
