USGS Topo · Published 1944About this map
The Coachella Valley unfolds as a complex agricultural and tribal landscape during the early 1940s, anchored by the growing hubs of Indio and Coachella. This wartime survey reveals an area defined by the Southern Pacific railroad corridor and the vital hydrology of the Whitewater River and the Storm Channel. To the south, the shoreline of the Salton Sea is visible at an elevation of 241 feet below sea level, adjacent to a local Salt Works.
