Alvord Mountain and the high elevation of Alvord Peak dominate this landscape within the northern Mojave Desert. The map records a transition from the complex topography of Clews Ridge and the drainage of Spanish Canyon down into the flatter desert basin. Transportation corridors are defined by Alvord Mountain Rd and the southern passage along Yermo Rd and Field Rd. This 2018 survey reveals the relationship between the elevated desert ranges and the infrastructure that skirts their base, offering a precise view of the land before any further modern development. The inclusion of Township and Range boundaries, such as t12n r4e, provides an essential grid for property research and land management history in this part of San Bernardino County.
