Mojave National Preserve covers the northeastern portion of this topographic survey, protecting a landscape dominated by the complex geology of the Mojave Desert. The terrain transitions from the high elevations of the Old Dad Mountains and Bristol Mountains down toward the alluvial basins of the Orange Blossom Wash and Old Dad Mountains Wash. This 2015 data reflects a modern era of conservation management, where the presence of the Lava Hills suggests the volcanic history that shaped the central San Bernardino County desert. The map tracks the drainages and dry washes that define the area's hydrology, illustrating the natural pathways carved through the arid valley floor between these prominent mountain ranges.
