1954 Map of Valley Mtn

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Valley Mountain dominates the northern reaches of this mid-century desert landscape, where the rugged peaks overlook a network of early roads and military infrastructure. In the early 1950s, the region was defined by its dual identity as a frontier for mining and a strategic training ground. The Marine Corps Training Center occupies the northwest corner, while several aviation markers including an Emergency Landing Field and a primary Landing Field emphasize the area's importance to desert flight operations. Local industry is represented by the Ben Butler Mine and scattered Prospects along the southern slopes of the range.
