About this map

Walton Place stands as a solitary named settlement on this 1930 advance sheet, which documents the high desert landscape at the boundary of Los Angeles and San Bernardino counties. This early survey, produced under the direction of County Surveyor J. E. Rockhold and Board Chairman Henry W. Wright, captures a sparsely populated transition between alluvial fans and rocky outcrops. The map details an emerging network of desert tracks, notably El Mirage Road and Wilsona Road, which provided vital connectivity for homesteaders and early travelers in this arid region. The infrequent notation of a Well indicates the critical importance of water sources in sustaining life and transit across this terrain. The survey work of C. P. McKinley provides a precision record of the land before significant modernization, emphasizing the isolated nature of early twentieth-century desert outposts.
