About this map

The Anza Valley and the high desert interior of Riverside County are meticulously documented in this 2012 survey, showing a landscape defined by seasonal water and scattered settlements. The township of Anza serves as a central hub, where the paths of Hamilton Cr and Cahuilla Cr converge amidst a dense grid of local roads and trails. To the north, the elevation rises toward Thomas Mountain, featuring several recreational sites such as the Ramona Campground and Tool Box Spring Campground.

Genealogists and local historians can trace family-named landmarks like Larner Ranch and established rural pockets including Cahuilla and Tripp Flats. The map illustrates the varied topography of the region, from the depression of Hog Lake to the distinct formation at Cave Rocks. The southern portion of the quadrangle opens into Durasno Valley and Terwilliger Valley, highlighting the expansive nature of these high-altitude ranching and residential corridors.
