1971 Map of Hinkley

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

The high desert community of Hinkley sits at the center of this 1971 survey, serving as a hub for the surrounding arid valleys. The settlement pattern is defined by the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad, which runs east-to-west through the township. Local civic life is anchored by the Hinkley Union Sch and the Grange Hall near Community Blvd. The landscape is a mix of agricultural infrastructure and stark geological features, including the Mojave River to the south and prominent elevations like Mt General and Iron Mtn. Numerous water infrastructure markings, such as the Substation, Radio Tower, and various wells, indicate the critical reliance on groundwater in this part of Hinkley Valley. The map also identifies industrial footprints like a Gravel Pit and scattered mines near Fossil Bed and Red Hill.
