Summary
Panoramic view of the Bullfrog Hills from a point 2 miles south of Beatty, the distant mountain to the left are the Grapevine Mountains, nearly due west of the observer; behind them is Death Valley. The hills geologically mapped occupied the upper half (photo) of the panorama. Due north of the observer is Beatty, on Amargosa River, which appears also the extreme right of the lower half (photos Ransome 655 and 656) of the panorama. East of the stream are the northern foothills of Bare Mountain. The relatively smooth, rounded hills in the foreground are composed of pre-Tertiary rocks. Nye County, Nevada. 1906.
