1988 Map of Cuddeback Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

Cuddeback Lake dominates this high-desert landscape in the late 1980s, its dry bed serving as a centerpiece for specialized aviation and military activity. The eastern portion of the lakebed is designated as the Cuddeback Lake Air Force Range, supported by a remote Landing Strip positioned on the southern flats. The terrain is defined by dramatic elevation changes, rising sharply from the lake floor to the summit of Almond Mountain in the north and the sheltered Almond Cove below it. This provisional survey captures a moment when the area was primarily used for defense and resource exploration, evidenced by a marked Prospect in the hills east of the lake. The sparse infrastructure, limited largely to unimproved roads and technical markers, underscores the site's role as a restricted testing and training ground within the San Bernardino desert.
