2021 Map of Frink NW

About this map

Hot Mineral Spa serves as a distinct focal point in this desert landscape, situated near the boundary between Riverside and Imperial counties. The terrain transitions from the low-lying Imperial Valley in the west to the rising elevations of the Chocolate Mountains in the northeast. This 2021 survey illustrates a sparse but functional network of desert roads and infrastructure, including the prominent Coachella Canal, which represents a vital water management feature for the region. The map captures a mix of residential and recreational activity along Hot Mineral Spa Rd and Spa Rd, contrasted against the open arid land crossed by Salt Cr. Local landmarks and family-named routes such as Vaughn Rd and Honey Wagon Rd provide specific points of reference for those tracing modern land use and settlement patterns in the California desert.
