1972 Map of Bighorn Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

Johnson Valley provides a clear look at the high desert interface between organized road grids and the rising foothills of the Bighorn Mountains in the early 1970s. The northern portion of the map shows an emerging network of planned residential streets with botanical names like Joshua Tree Avenue, Manzanita Ave, and Quailbush Avenue. This geometry dissolves into the winding topography of the south, where Bighorn Canyon and Ruby Canyon dominate the landscape.
