1959 Map of Clark Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1960

About this map

Coyote Mountain dominates the center of this desert landscape, standing between the distinct basins of Clark Valley and Borrego Valley. In the late 1950s, the burgeoning community of Borrego Springs is visible in the lower-left corner, centered around the recognizable hub of Christmas Circle. The transition from the undeveloped wilderness of the Anza-Borrego Desert State Park to agricultural and residential plots is marked by a network of local roads like Di Giorgio Road and Borrego Springs Rd. Local infrastructure of the era is well-defined, including the Borrego Valley Airport, the Borrego School, and the Borrego Valley Substation. Traceable historical routes such as the Truckhaven Trail and various Jeep Trails snake across the arid terrain, while the Pegleg Smith Historical Marker serves as a nod to regional legend near a lonely Gravel Pit.
