About this map

The Southern Pacific railroad provides a stark linear boundary across the arid landscape of Imperial County in this mid-century survey. The settlement at Cactus sits along these tracks, serving as a remote point of interest within the vast Pilot Knob Mesa. The terrain is characterized by the transition between the shifting dunes of the Sand Hills and the flatter expanses of the East Mesa.
