2012 Map of Cabazon

About this map

The San Gorgonio Pass serves as a critical geographic gateway, illustrated here during a period of modern infrastructure development. The settlement of Cabazon occupies the floor of this narrow corridor, while the city of Banning expands along the western edge near the Banning Municipal Airport. The landscape is defined by the braided channels of the San Gorgonio River and numerous drainage systems like Potrero Cr and Hathaway Cr that descend from the surrounding highlands. Evidence of mountain infrastructure is visible at the East Portal Adit and the Barker Peak Lookout, which surveys the high ground near Barker Peak. Between the primary towns, the small siding of Owl sits along the transportation spine. North of the developed corridor, the terrain transitions into complex canyon systems including Millard Canyon and Wood Canyon.
