1986 Map of Cave Mountain

About this map

Cave Mountain stands as the central topographic anchor in this San Bernardino County desert landscape, where the Mojave River Wash cuts a distinct path through the arid terrain. The map documents a critical corridor of infrastructure, featuring a prominent Pipeline and Transmission Line that traverse the valley floor between the Cronese Mountains and the northern reaches of the Cady Mountains. Settlement is sparse, limited to the rail-aligned points of Afton and Baxter, which sit along the edges of the Afton Canyon Mojave River. This 1980s survey captures the region's industrial and geological character, marked by numerous Prospects, Mine sites, and a Gravel Pit. The hydrologic transition at East Cronese Lake and the broader Cronese Lake Valley illustrates the complex drainage patterns typical of the Mojave's interior basins.
