1971 Map of Apple Valley South

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

The Mojave River defines the western edge of this High Desert landscape, where the growing residential grid of Apple Valley meets the rising terrain of Juniper Flats. This 1971 survey captures the town's mid-century expansion, evidenced by the proliferation of schools like Mariana Sch and Yucca Loma Sch, alongside local landmarks like the Fish Hatchery at Jess Ranch. Transportation routes are central to the area's development, with the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad corridor and the Bear Valley Cutoff providing vital connections across the arid basin. To the east, the map details the distinct layouts of Mariana Ranch and the Lone Wolf Colony, illustrating the varied styles of desert settlement and ranching that shaped the region before more modern suburbanization.
