About this map

Fort Irwin Military Reservation and the U S Naval Reservation dominate this mid-1980s landscape in the Mojave Desert. The map reveals a specialized infrastructure centered around the Goldstone settlement and the nearby Mojave Base. This area is characterized by high-desert technical facilities, including a Radio Facility and Radio Tower, likely linked to deep space communications or military operations. To the east, the dry bed of Goldstone Lake sits adjacent to the Goldstone Landing Strip, indicating the site's importance for aerial access and logistical support. Numerous prospect markings and prospect pits are scattered throughout the high ground, particularly north of Superior Valley, where mining activity once probed the arid hills. The terrain is precisely measured against the San Bernardino Meridian, illustrating the intersection of natural desert features with strictly defined government jurisdictions.
