2018 Map of Homer

About this map

Mojave National Preserve anchors the western portion of this 2018 survey, illustrating the interface between protected federal lands and the arid expanse of the Mojave Desert. The landscape is defined by the modest settlement of Homer, located at a crucial transit junction where desert roads and historical transportation corridors converge. The topography is marked by significant elevation changes, particularly toward the northern reaches where Homer Mountain Acrd rises above the alluvial fans. This mapping reflects the modern infrastructure of San Bernardino County, where routes like Homer-Klinefelter Rd and Walter Rd provide passage through a territory largely defined by its township and range sections. The grid of the Public Land Survey System overlaying the natural terrain highlight the systematic organization of this desert interior.
