2012 Map of Ubehebe Peak

About this map

The Racetrack, a famous dry lakebed known for its moving stones, sits at the heart of this high-desert basin. Located within Death Valley National Park, the terrain is defined by the sharp vertical rise of the Last Chance Range to the west and the prominent spire of Ubehebe Peak overlooking the valley floor. The map details the isolated drainage patterns and geological formations characteristic of the Mojave Desert, including the rock outcropping known as The Grandstand which rises abruptly from the playa. Remote access is provided by unpaved tracks like Ubehebe Rd and Hunter Mountain Rd, leading travelers through landmarks such as Lost Burro Gap and into the secluded Hidden Valley. The absence of permanent settlements emphasizes the protected, wilderness character of this corner of Inyo County.
