That is in the Eastern Sierras, West of Hwy 395 in the Mammoth Lakes region.

Depending on how you approach Death Valley you might be in the general 
area. If you get up to Lone Pine and the Alabama Hills you will be in 
country where many Westerns were made. Just South to Lone Pine Hwy 136 
heads East to Death Valley NP. Head a little further North to Mono Lake 
and you will be where Clint Eastwood filmed "High Plains Drifter". Some 
scenes in other Eastwood movies were done West of Lone Pine.

Black Rock does not exist, it is pure motion picture fabrication. That 
said, it was filmed just out side of Lone Pine, with the various jeep 
and other vehicle chases taking place in the Alabama Hills West of Lone 
Pine. If you want to locate the site go to Google Earth, find Lone 
Pine, California and search along the old railroad tracks. The Southern 
Pacific train which featured in "Black Rock" no longer runs.
