1994 Map of Volcanic Hills West

USGS Topo · Published 1997

About this map

The Volcanic Hills define this high-desert landscape on the border of Mineral and Esmeralda County, where the eastern edge of the Inyo National Forest meets an active mining and ranching corridor. The map shows a region shaped by industrial extraction, featuring the F and L Mine and numerous Open Pit Mines alongside various unnamed Prospects and a Gravel Pit. The terrain is marked by significant drainages such as Sand Spring Canyon and Pinchot Creek, which navigate the space between prominent local landmarks like Pinyon Hill and Pinto Hill. A complex network of 4WD trails connects these remote sites, while an Aqueduct and the presence of Radio Towers indicate the essential infrastructure required to maintain operations in this arid environment, south of the Base Line toward Wildhorse Flat.
