1957 Map of Brawley NW

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

The New River corridor in Imperial County reveals a stark contrast between military testing grounds and the desert's complex irrigation network as it appeared in the late 1950s. The western half of the landscape is dominated by the Parachute Range and the Recovery Test Range, which sit alongside a designated Naval Reservation Boundary and a specific Firing Range. These features signify the region's importance to mid-century aerospace and military operations.
