About this map

Industrial and military activity define this Mojave Desert landscape, concentrated along the A T & S F railroad corridor. The area shows the transition of local identity near the Kern and San Bernardino county line, where Baker serves as the primary post office near West Baker and the emerging town of Boron. The presence of the Jennifer Mine, extensive Tailings, and a Tailings Pond underscores the significance of local mining operations to the mid-century economy.
