2002 Map of Chuckwalla Spring

USGS Topo · Published 2004

About this map

The Chocolate Mountain Aerial Gunnery Range dominates the southern landscape of this California desert region, marking a significant military reservation boundary that separates public land from defense areas. Further north, the arid terrain is defined by the Chuckwalla Mountains and the Little Chuckwalla Mountains, with Graham Pass providing a natural corridor through the heights. The historic Bradshaw trail or road traverses the center, connecting scattered points of human presence such as Rainey Well and Indian Wells. This 2002 data reveals the intersection of resource extraction and geological interest, featuring the Paymaster Mine and several prospects near the Geode Beds and the Black Hills. Drainage patterns like Chuckwalla Wash and Milpitas Wash carve through the Smoketree Valley, illustrating the complex hydrology of the Colorado Desert.
