1953 Map of Acolita

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

The Southern Pacific railroad cuts a straight line through the Colorado Desert, defining the sparse settlement pattern near the Naval Reservation Boundary. Small desert stations like Acolita and Mesquite dot the tracks along the Niland-Glamis Road, serving as remote outposts in a landscape dominated by the Chocolate Mountains. This 1953 field-checked survey captures the region during a period of heavy military and industrial use, showing the Gunnery Range and isolated mining operations.
