About this map

The Salton Sea dominates the northwest corner of this mid-century Imperial County landscape, its shoreline receding to reveal unique geothermal and geological features like the Mud Pots and Obsidian Butte. In the early 1940s, the surrounding basin was a hive of agricultural and industrial expansion, sustained by an intricate grid of irrigation channels including the Vail Canal and West Side Main Canal.
