1951 Map of Waucoba Wash

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

The Inyo Mountains dominate the western portion of this 1951 survey, giving way to the stark expanse of the Saline Valley (Depression). This landscape is defined by its extreme isolation and a mid-century mining economy focused on specialized minerals. Industrial activity is concentrated in the canyons, where names like the Waucoba Tungsten Mine, White Eagle Talc Mine, and Grey Eagle Talc Mine indicate the diverse geological resources being extracted. Near Willow Creek, the presence of Willow Creek Camp suggests a vital base for operations in this arid environment.
