2021 Map of East of Homer Mountain

About this map

The Mojave Desert terrain dominates this landscape, where the arid flats of the Piute Valley meet the rising elevations of the Dead Mountains along the eastern edge. A corridor of transportation history is visible in the transit network, most notably the Old Government Rd crossing the northern portion of the sheet. This historic route represents a critical 19th-century desert trail system used for military and civilian passage between the Colorado River and coastal California. Modern infrastructure follows similar logic, with Us Rte 95 cutting north-to-south through the desert floor. The map also documents the precise jurisdictional boundary where Nevada's Clark County meets California's San Bernardino County, highlighting the remote desert borderlands of the American Southwest.
