2015 Map of Danby Lake
USGS Topo · Published 2015About this map
Danby Lake dominates this San Bernardino County landscape, appearing as an expansive dry lake bed in the California desert. The terrain is defined by the flat expanse of Ward Valley and the massive infrastructure of the Colorado River Aqueduct, which cuts through the southwest corner of the map. This engineering marvel, crucial for regional water transport, is accompanied by the Iron Mountain Pumping Plant Airport, reflecting the logistical needs of maintaining water systems in isolated desert environments. The area is sparsely developed, with Cadiz Rd providing one of the few managed transit corridors through the arid basin. The map reveals the intricate natural drainage patterns that flow toward the central lake bed, illustrating a landscape shaped by intermittent water and severe heat.
