About this map

Coxcomb Mountains dominate the southwestern quadrant of this arid landscape, bordering the protected expanses of Joshua Tree National Monument and the Joshua Tree Wilderness. The terrain is defined by the stark contrast between these sharp peaks and the broad floor of Cadiz Valley, where an intricate network of drainage patterns flows toward the center of the basin. The most significant human modification is the massive Colorado River Aqueduct, which skirts the eastern edge of the mountains, utilizing specialized engineering including multiple Inverted Siphons and the Iron Portal to navigate the topography.
