1964 Map of Grays Well

About this map

The international boundary between United States and Mexico defines the southern edge of this desert survey, where engineering marvels meet the shifting geography of the Sand Hills. The All American Canal and Coachella Canal are the primary features of the landscape, tracing a blue path through the arid East Mesa. These waterways represent the mid-century agricultural lifeline of the Imperial Valley, with Drop 1 marking a specific point of irrigation management along the route. Human activity is sparse but concentrated along the transit corridors, noted by the Grays Well Site and Gordons Well. These locations, along with a Roadside Rest, highlight the survival of early desert travelers and the evolution of modern highway infrastructure through Imperial County.
