2012 Map of Kane Spring NE

About this map

Salton Sea dominates the eastern half of this landscape, its fluctuating shoreline defining the local geography near View Beach and Sandy Beach. This 2012 topographic survey captures the structured water management systems of the Imperial Valley, where irrigation and drainage infrastructure are essential to the desert environment. Notable features include the Trifolium Drain and several lateral channels, such as Lateral Nine, Lateral Eight, and Lateral Seven. These engineered waterways intersect with the natural drainage of the San Felipe Cr and the wider San Felipe Wash, illustrating the intersection of natural hydrology and human-controlled agricultural water systems near the basin floor. The map provides a clear record of the access roads and shore-bound settlements as they existed a decade ago.
