2012 Map of Cowhole Mountain
USGS Topo · Published 2012About this map
Sands sits at the junction of the Up Rr and Kelso Rd, serving as a isolated outpost in the arid landscape of San Bernardino County. The area is defined by the prominent Cowhole Mountain to the northwest, which overlooks the drainage of the Kelso Wash. This desert corridor illustrates the vital role of heavy rail infrastructure in traversing the Mojave, as the Union Pacific line follows the natural contours of the wash. The map captures the limited but strategic human footprint in this part of California, where transport routes are dictated by the underlying topography of the mountain and its alluvial plains.
