2015 Map of Homer

About this map

The settlement of Homer lies at a critical juncture of desert transport and topography within the Mojave Desert of San Bernardino County. This 2015 survey illustrates how modern infrastructure interacts with the protected landscape of the Mojave National Preserve, which occupies the northwestern portion of the map. The terrain is defined by the sweeping drainage patterns of the Piute Valley to the north and the rugged elevations of the Sacramento Mountains in the southeast. Important local thoroughfares like Goffs Rd and Walter Rd connect the sparse desert outposts, tracing the path of historical travel corridors through the arid basin. The map provides a precise view of the Public Land Survey System divisions, showing the grid of townships and ranges that overlay this transition between mountainous terrain and desert flats.
