2018 Map of Cahuilla Mountain

About this map

San Bernardino National Forest dominates the high ground of this 2018 survey, where the peaks of Cahuilla Mtn and Little Cahuilla Mtn rise above a series of arid valleys. The settlement patterns are defined by the convergence of Weber Valley, Lewis Valley, and Reed Valley, leading down toward the southern residential developments. In the lower reaches, the Lake Riverside reservoir serves as a focal point for the community, accompanied by the Lake Riverside Estates Airport and its grid of local roads. The landscape is deeply carved by drainage systems like Bautista Canyon and Elder Canyon, which illustrate the complex topography of the Peninsular Ranges. This map captures the region's character as a pocket of rural residential life and aviation interests situated at the edge of vast protected wilderness areas, tracing the paths of seasonal watercourses such as Cahuilla Cr and Tucalota Cr through the brush-covered flats.
