1947 Map of Barrel Spring

USGS Topo · Published 1952

About this map

The Lower Borego Valley desert landscape, captured here in a 1947 survey, reveals a remote region defined by ephemeral hydrology and early industrial efforts. San Felipe Creek winds through the center of the sheet, feeding into arid features like Benson Dry Lake and Hatchill Dry Lake. The settlement of Ocotillo serves as a small waypoint along the highway, while Little Borego sits further south near the base of the Vallecito Mtns.
