1968 Map of Fifteenmile Spring

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Washington Place and its small nearby Cem stand as a focal point for local history in this high desert landscape, which was surveyed in 1967. The area is defined by the intersection of industrial transport and systematic irrigation, with the U. S. Steel Railroad cutting through the eastern desert while the Eden Canal and Hay Ditch distribute water across the Eden Valley to the west. This infrastructure supported ranching and transit in a terrain otherwise dominated by features like Buffalo Hump and vast stretches of Shifting Sand.
