Tonight I found a map that belonged to my Great-grandfather , showing ElMirage
and Harper dry lakes - The title of the map is Victor and Kramer Oil Fields -
I would guess it was printed about 90 years ago and wound up in Pennsylvania -
The lakes aren't named , only who leased the oil rights - All of ElMirage was
leased but only a corner of Harper - None of the roads had numbers - The road
southwest from OroGrande is named "old road to salt lake".  John
