1951 Map of Alvord Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1951

About this map

Alvord Mountain dominates this portion of the High Desert, serving as the central topographical anchor between the northern military grounds and southern transit corridors. In the early Cold War era, the Camp Irwin Military Reservation occupied the northern half of this landscape, its boundary lines clearly marked as they cut through the arid terrain. Survival in this environment depended on scattered water sources such as Garlic Spring, Jack Rabbit Spring, and Alvord Well, which supported both early ranching and mining activities.
