1973 Map of Boron NE

About this map

The high desert terrain of northeastern San Bernardino County is defined here by the remnants of early resource extraction and transit. The Fremont (Site) serves as a focal point for the landscape, situated near a complex network of ephemeral infrastructure including a Dry Well and an isolated Corral. The presence of several Prospects and an individual Prospect across the northern sections suggests a history of mineral exploration in the shadow of the mountains, while the Old Railroad Grade and Fremont Peak Road indicate the primary corridors that once connected these remote camps to the wider region.
