1963 Map of Iris Pass

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

The Coachella East Mesa Canal cuts across the arid landscape of the Colorado Desert in this mid-1960s survey, marking a stark line between the irrigated lowlands and the rugged Chocolate Mountains. This territory was defined by military and industrial utility, dominated by the massive Aerial Gunnery Range and various naval and government reservations. Traces of older transit and extraction are visible throughout, from the historic Bradshaw Road to the Imperial Buttes Mine.
