1904 Map of Indio

USGS Topo · Published 1939

About this map

The Southern Pacific railroad line anchors the development of the Coachella Valley in this early 20th-century survey, linking a string of desert settlements from Myoma and Indio down toward the Salton Basin. The contrast between the flat valley floor and the towering Santa Rosa Mountains is stark, with various canyons like Cathedral Canyon and Magnesia Spring Canyon draining toward the Whitewater River. Human presence is marked by diverse desert outposts including Agua Dulce, Seventeen Palms, and the home of Figtree John.
