Borrego Springs and the surrounding desert basin are defined by the convergence of steep mountain ranges and the alluvial plains of the Borrego Valley. This 2021 survey illustrates a landscape shaped by both water and its absence, where seasonal drainages like Coyote Cr and San Felipe Cr terminate in the Borrego Sink. The map details the transition from established settlements like Borrego and Desert Lodge to the more remote heights of the Vallecito Mountains and the North Pinyon Mountains.
