1988 Map of Chuckwalla Spring

About this map

Chuckwalla Spring and Mesquite Spring serve as critical water points in this arid stretch of the California desert, where the Chuckwalla Mountains meet the Little Chuckwalla Mountains. This late-1980s landscape is defined by its isolation and specialized land use, as indicated by the presence of a Mine and various Prospects in the northern canyons. To the south, the terrain drops toward the broad Arroyo Seco, a prominent drainage feature that cuts across the territory.
