2021 Map of Clyde

About this map

Algodones Dunes dominate the southwestern reaches of this Imperial County landscape, where shifting sands meet the structural linearity of the desert transportation network. The settlement of Clyde serves as a central point along the primary transportation corridor, positioned between the dunes and the drainage patterns of Indian Wash. The map records a sparse but functional infrastructure of desert routes, including Vista Mine Rd and Indian Pass Rd, which provide access through the arid terrain of the Colorado Desert. These roads connect isolated points across several townships, including t14s r19e and t14s r20e, illustrating the relationship between topography and human transit in this specialized environment.
