2018 Map of East of Broadwell Lake

About this map

Bristol Mountains dominate the northern and central sections of this arid landscape, a characteristic segment of the Mojave Desert east of Broadwell Lake. The terrain is defined by complex contour lines and drainage patterns, most notably the Bristol Mountains Wash which cuts through the southeastern corner. This modern survey illustrates the vast, uninhabited stretches of the California desert, where the natural topography is the primary feature. The map provides clear delineation of the public land survey system, including townships t9n r8e and t8n r9e, showing how the desert was gridded for administrative purposes despite its lack of permanent settlements or infrastructure.
