About this map

The 651st Engineer Topographic Battalion produced this provisional survey during World War II, specifically for the Commanding General of the California-Arizona Maneuver Area. This military-focused study highlights the logistical infrastructure of the Mojave Desert, centered on the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe Railroad as it snakes through the arid landscape. The settlement of Klinefelter appears as a critical point along the rail line, situated just west of the rising slopes of the Dead Mountains. Because this map was derived from earlier Metropolitan Water District data, it emphasizes elevation and terrain for maneuvers rather than dense civilian development, capturing a stark, functional view of the region's transport corridor during the height of the war effort.
