What is the lowest elevation shown on the basin floor?
The following questions are based on Map T-10, the “Furnace Creek, California” quadrangle (scale 1:62,500; contour interval 80 feet; dotted lines represent 20-foot contours). This portion of the Furnace Creek quadrangle shows the Panamint Range and the western side of Death Valley in Death Valley National Park (36°19'08"N, 116°53'25"W). Several large alluvial fans can be seen along the eastern front of the Panamint Range. The basin floor here is called the Death Valley “salt pan,” because salts have accumulated here in great thicknesses.
