About this map

Salton City anchors the southwestern shore of the Salton Sea in this early 21st-century map, revealing the intricate street grids and residential planning characteristic of this desert community. The landscape is defined by the intersection of nature and infrastructure, where the Southern Pacific Railroad skirts the northeastern shoreline through rail sidings at Durmid and Bertram. This area reflects a complex geography of resource management and conservation, bordered by the Torres Martinez Indian Reservation and the Salton Sea National Wildlife Refuge. The eastern edge is dominated by the restricted terrain of the Chocolate Mountain Aerial Gunnery Range, while natural features like Bat Caves Buttes and drainage systems such as Tule Wash and Arroyo Salada mark the arid basin floor. Industrial and military presence is noted through the Salton Sea Test Base B-1 and various sewage disposal sites serving the local population centers.
