About this map

Mining operations and remote desert outposts define this arid landscape spanning the San Bernardino Co Riverside Co border. During the mid-1950s, the region was a hub of prospecting activity, evidenced by the concentration of claims near Old Dale and the high peaks of the Music Mountains. The map documents numerous active and historical sites including the Goat Basin Mine, North Star Mine, and the Virginia Dale Mine, alongside several prospects and shafts.
