Visit Eichbaum Toll Road Historical Marker, Stovepipe Wells, California

In 1926, H. W. Eichbaum obtained a franchise for a toll road from Darwin Falls to Stovepipe Wells, the first maintained road into Death Valley from the west. It changed the area's economic base from mining to tourism and brought about the creation of Death Valley National Monument seven years later. Located 100 ft S of State Hwy 190 (P.M. 85.83), Stovepipe Wells.
