1982 Map of Harvard Hill

USGS Topo · Published 1993

About this map

Mojave Valley and the dry expanse of the Mojave Desert dominate this landscape, which was meticulously field-checked in 1976 and updated with 1991 aerial imagery. The map reveals an unusual cluster of artificial oases in this arid environment, including the recreational waters of Lake Dolores and Lake Tami. The settlement of Harvard sits as a primary waypoint along the corridor of infrastructure that cuts through the valley floor. Large-scale utility projects are prominent, defined by multiple corridors including the Steel Tower Transmission Line and Steel Pole Transmission Line that traverse the open terrain near Harvard Hill. Along the seasonal path of the Mojave River, small-scale aviation markers like a Dirt Air Strip and Dirt Airstrip Facilities suggest the area's role as a remote hub for private transport and desert recreation during the late twentieth century.
