2015 Map of Cadiz

About this map

The Marble Mountains dominate the northern landscape of this Mojave quadrangle, their steep contours descending into the open expanse of the Mojave Desert. The sparse settlement of Chambless sits along a desert corridor defined by Moneta Rd and Mac Tul Rd, serving as a remote outpost in San Bernardino County. To the southeast, the small community of Cadiz marks a critical junction where the local transportation network meets the Cadiz Airstrip. The environment is shaped by intermittent drainage patterns, including Cuts Wash, which navigate the arid terrain between the mountain slopes and the low-lying desert floor. Surveyed in the modern era, the map captures the isolation and functional layout of these desert waypoints, showing how roads like Cadiz Rd connect these distant points of habitation and infrastructure.
