About this map

The high desert landscape of Inyo National Forest is defined here by the convergence of the White Mountains and the Inyo Mountains, separated by deep cuts like Soldier Canyon and Crooked Canyon. This 1990s revision reveals a terrain where water is the most critical resource, evidenced by the strategic locations of Uhlmeyer Spring, Wilkerson Springs, and Batchelder Spring.

Historical transit patterns are anchored by the presence of a Tollhouse and a recorded Tollhouse (Site) near the Second Standard Parallel South, indicating old freighting or travel routes through these elevations. In the southwest corner, the Owens Valley floor is visible where the Owens River flows past numerous prospects and gravel pits, marking the localized extractive history of the Inyo County region.
