1971 Map of Fifteenmile Valley

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

The Granite Mountains dominate the northern landscape of this Mojave Desert quadrangle, where high desert terrain meets the expanding residential grid of Apple Valley. During the early 1970s, the desert floor shows a transition from undeveloped basin land to a structured network of named streets such as Del Oro Road and Loma Vista Road. The Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe Railroad cuts a diagonal path through the valley, serving as a primary transportation artery through Fifteenmile Valley. Local industry and topography are marked by features like the V P Mine and several Borrow Pits, while natural landmarks like Deadman Point and Chimney Rock provide distinct navigational points. To the east, the vast dry bed of Lucerne Lake anchors the drainage patterns that flow from canyons like Arrastre Canyon and Grapevine Canyon.
