1940 Map of Kane Spring

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

The southwest shore of the Salton Sea dominates this 1940 aerial survey, where desert reclamation and infrastructure meet the encroaching waters of the basin. At the time of this survey, the water surface sat at 241 feet below sea level, shaping the recreational and environmental margins at Sea View Beach and Sandy Beach. The arid interior is defined by intermittent drainages like San Felipe Creek and Tule Wash, which cut through the West Mesa toward the Superstition Hills.
