The Salton Sea dominates the southern landscape of this 2018 survey, illustrating the vast expanse of California's largest inland body of water within the Imperial Valley. This arid region of Imperial County is largely defined by the grid of the Public Land Survey System, with the settlement of Bertram appearing in the northeast corner near the edge of the basin. The shoreline of the sea and the surrounding desert floor are bisected by Range Rd, providing a rare point of modern infrastructure in a terrain characterized by sparse development and extreme topography below sea level. The map offers a clear view of the township and range boundaries that organize this desert landscape, from T9S R11E down through T11S R11E.
