1998 Map of Harpers Well

USGS Topo · Published 2003

About this map

Harpers Well stands as a focal point in this arid desert landscape, where water sources like San Felipe Creek and various seasonal washes dictate the terrain's character. The 1998 data reveals a region defined by its extreme topography, from the expansive Lower Borrego Valley to the prominent Superstition Hills and West Mesa. Notable infrastructure includes the Mining Railway cutting through the southwestern corner near Fish Creek, and the presence of the US Naval Air Facility along the eastern boundary. The network of unpaved routes, such as Old Kane Spring Road and numerous 4WD tracks, underscores the area's isolation and its historical reliance on specific transit corridors. This survey provides a precise view of the Imperial Valley's northwestern reaches before significant modern shifts, capturing specific benchmarks like BM 24 and BM 59 across the sea-level flats.
