1944 Map of Durmid

About this map

The Salton Sea dominates this wartime landscape, its shoreline meticulously tracked by the Southern Pacific railroad. Small settlements and rail stops like Durmid and Bertram sit just above the water level, illustrating the thin margin of human habitation in this desert basin. On the opposite western shore, the Truckhaven Trail connects the isolated outpost of Truckhaven to the surrounding drainage systems of Coral and Palm Wash.
