About this map

Arid desert basins and isolated ranges define this corner of Riverside County, where the industrial and mining heritage of the Colorado Desert is etched into the landscape. The settlement of Midland serves as a focal point in the north, historically linked to the gypsum mining operations that once thrived in the area. Transportation routes such as Midland Rd and Midland Depot Rd highlight the region's connection to rail and resource extraction.

Further south, the map identifies Inca, a location situated along the eastern flank of the terrain. The topography is dominated by the stark rises of the Little Maria Mountains, the Big Maria Mountains, and the McCoy Mountains. Roads like Arlington Mine Rd suggest a history of exploration and access to the mineral-rich mountains, providing a detailed look at the geographic layout of this desert corridor in the early 21st century.
