1955 Map of Glamis

About this map

The Sand Hills dominate this mid-century landscape of Imperial County, California, showing a territory defined by infrastructure and military utility. The Southern Pacific railroad cuts a straight line through the desert, connecting the small settlements of Glamis and Ruthven. This corridor was critical for transcontinental freight and travel in the post-war era, even as the surrounding environment was carved into functional zones.
