2021 Map of Humbug Mountain

About this map

Old Dale and the high desert terrain of the Pinto Mountains define this section of the Mojave Desert along the border of San Bernardino and Riverside Counties. The landscape is etched with the remnants of industrial passage, particularly through names like Gold Crown Rd and Goods Mine Rd, which hint at the region's historical mining activity. While the northern reaches show a sparse grid of residential desert tracks such as Comet Rd and Morning Star Rd, the center is dominated by the prominent rise of Humbug Mtn. This 2021 survey illustrates the persistent isolation of this arid corridor, where modern desert living meets the rugged footprint of early 20th-century prospecting and trail-building, as seen at Misty Trl.
