2021 Map of Homewood Canyon

About this map

The Argus Range dominates this portion of the northern Mojave Desert, where the landscape is defined by a sparse but vital network of water sources. Small desert springs, including La Motte Spring, Coyote Spring, and Bircham Springs, are scattered throughout the canyons, suggesting the historical importance of these sites for travel and survival in an arid environment. The map details the transition from the high ridges of the range down into Etcharren Valley and the settlement at Homewood Canyon.
