2012 Map of Calumet Mountains

About this map

Calumet Mountains define the stark landscape of this San Bernardino County survey, showing a complex network of arid drainage channels and desert terrain. This 2012 map provides a precise recording of the dry wash systems that descend from the ridges, illustrating the natural hydrological patterns of the Mojave Desert. Minimal human infrastructure is present on this portion of the range, leaving the focus entirely on the topographical contours and the intricate paths of the ephemeral streams that cut through the high-desert basins. The data presented here is synthesized from U.S. Geological Survey records and National Elevation Datasets, offering an exacting look at the physical geography of the region as it existed in the early twenty-first century.
