2018 Map of Black Hills

About this map

The Black Hills rise from the desert floor in this detailed 2018 survey of eastern California. Located within the vast expanse of the Mojave Desert, this quadrangle reveals a landscape defined by significant elevation changes and seasonal drainage patterns, most notably through Christmas Canyon in the northwest. The terrain is marked by the complex topography of the hills themselves, which dominate the central and southern portions of the sheet. Modern infrastructure is sparse, with Granit Wells Rd providing one of the few primary access points through the arid environment. This map captures the precise township and range boundaries that organize this part of San Bernardino County, including t28s r43e and t29s r44e, offering a clear view of the physical geography before further environmental or land-use changes occur.
