About this map

Saline Valley and the steep eastern slopes of the Inyo Mountains dominate this 1950s survey, revealing a landscape defined by isolated mineral extraction and scarce water sources. The map documents an era of active mining prospecting, highlighting sites such as the Waucoba Tungsten Mine, the Bunker Hill Mine, and the Blue Monster Mine. These industrial outposts are connected by rugged tracks through canyons like Wheeler and Lead, where the availability of water at Waucoba Camp and Willow Creek Camp was critical for survival and operations.
