2018 Map of Danby Lake

About this map

The Colorado River Aqueduct carves a striking industrial line through the desert of San Bernardino County, marking a vital piece of California's water infrastructure. This survey captures the infrastructure-heavy landscape where technical utility meets the arid expanse of Ward Valley. At the southwestern corner, the Iron Mountain Pumping Plant Airport serves the massive pumping operations nearby, highlighting the area's role as a critical node in the regional water network. A sparse but functional road system, including Cadiz Rd and Iron Mountain Pump Plant Rd, facilitates access to these remote utility sites. The presence of the Telephone Pole Line Rd further emphasizes the grid-like development imposed on the desert terrain to maintain state-wide resource distribution during the early 21st century.
