1992 Map of Frink

USGS Topo · Published 1995

About this map

The Salton Sea dominates this corner of the Imperial Valley, where the shoreline meets a landscape of desert infrastructure and early recreation development. Along the water's edge, the planned grid of Bombay Beach stands in contrast to the more utilitarian settlements of Pope and Frink to the north. These sites are tied closely to the transportation corridor running parallel to the shore, where a Landing Strip and various resource extraction sites like a Gravel Pit and Quarry indicate the area's mid-century economic activity. Water remains the most critical resource in this arid environment, evidenced by the presence of Frink Spring. The map also highlights the establishment of public lands, specifically the Salton Sea State Recreation Area and Niland County Park, marking the transition of the shoreline from a purely industrial or agricultural buffer into a destination for desert tourism.
