1956 Map of Helendale

USGS Topo · Published 1993

About this map

Helendale and the surrounding high desert landscape are defined by the vital corridor of the Mojave River, where water and transport networks converge. This 1956 survey, updated with 1989 aerial data, captures the evolution of the area from a rail-dependent settlement along the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe to the modern residential development of Silver Lakes. The presence of the National Trails Highway and a Landing Strip underscores the region's importance as a thoroughfare. To the east, the terrain rises toward Sparkhule Mtn, marked by numerous extractive sites including the Apex Mine and various prospects. Historical infrastructure like the Old Railroad Grade and the Hardrock Davis Road reflects the desert's industrial past, while the Riverview Middle Sch and local Fire Sta anchor the community of Helendale.
