1943 Map of Coxcomb Mountains
USGS Topo · Published 1962About this map
The Coxcomb Mountains dominate this 1940s landscape, which documents a critical era of desert infrastructure development during the early war years. A significant portion of the sheet is occupied by the eastern reaches of Joshua Tree National Monument, bordering the vast Pinto Basin. The terrain is defined by the massive engineering of the Colorado River Aqueduct, which cuts across the arid floor of the Chuckwalla Valley and the southern slopes of the Eagle Mountains.
