Near the top of China Ranch was the loading point and end of the Tonopah & Tidewater's spur to the Gypsum Queen Mine. Behind this location and continuing up a canyon are the openings through which the mined Gypsum was hauled out, moved here and loaded onto box cars for the trip to the processing plant.
The graded dirt road is the exit from the ranch to Furnace Creek Road (paved) and the return to the Old Spanish Trail Highway and Tecopa.
The location is currently home to the China Date Farm, which sells dates and baked goods. Some of the date palms are from the early 1900s.
