1960 Map of Borrego Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1961

About this map

The Borrego Badlands dominate this arid landscape, showing a complex network of ephemeral drainage systems like San Felipe Wash and Palo Verde Wash. In the early 1960s, this portion of the Anza-Borrego Desert State Park centered on the small outpost of Ocotillo Wells, which served as a focal point for desert travel near the Los Puertocitos Historical Marker. The map reveals a land defined by water scarcity, noting several dry sites such as Wolfe Well (Dry) and the Little Borrego (Site).
