Surficial Geologic Map of the Death Valley Junction 30' x 60' Quadrangle, California and Nevada By Janet L. Slate, Margaret E. Berry, and Christopher M. Menges 2009 U.S. Geological Survey Scientific Investigations Map 3013 I. SUMMARY: This surficial geologic map of the Death Valley Junction 30' x 60' quadrangle was compiled digitally at 1:100,000 scale. The map area covers the central part of Death Valley and adjacent mountain ranges—the Panamint Range on the west and the Funeral Mountains on the east—as well as areas east of Death Valley including some of the Amargosa Desert, the Spring Mountains and Pahrump Valley. Shaded relief delineates the topography and appears as gray tones in the mountain ranges where the bedrock is undifferentiated and depicted as a single unit. II.
