2015 Map of Danby

About this map

The high desert landscape of the eastern Mojave Desert defines this area of San Bernardino County, centered on the settlement of Danby. Situated at the convergence of several desert thoroughfares, the region is marked by significant topographical shifts between the Clipper Mountains to the northwest and the sweeping expanses of Fenner Valley and Lanfair Valley. The local hydrology is dominated by the ephemeral Watson Wash, which cuts a distinct path through the arid terrain. The map details a network of backcountry routes essential for desert navigation and utility maintenance, including Telephone Line Rd, Skeleton Pass Rd, and the Hummingbird Trl. This documentation of the area's physical geography reflects the enduring patterns of transit and minimal settlement in one of California's most isolated corridors.
