1965 Map of Bard

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

The Colorado River and the Gila River converge in this borderland landscape, where the Fort Yuma Indian Reservation dominates the western topography. The area is defined by its complex water management system, centered on the massive All American Canal and several significant flumes. Within the reservation, the small community of Bard serves as a central hub, surrounded by a precise grid of agricultural streets like 7th Street and Main Drain. To the south, The Island is bounded by the winding river channels, while the northeast transition into the Picacho Recreation Lands reveals a shift from irrigated valley floors to arid washes like Mission Wash. Evidence of early 20th-century life is found at the Potholes Cem and the San Pasqual Valley Sch, providing essential markers for genealogical research in this unique corner of Imperial County.
