2012 Map of Klinker Mountain

About this map

Summit Diggings anchors the western edge of this desert landscape, suggesting a history tied to local mineral extraction. The terrain is defined by volcanic and structural landmarks, including the Lava Mountains and the prominent Dome Mountain to the east. The central Summit Range and namesake Klinker Mountain dominate the topography, providing a detailed view of the drainage patterns through these arid elevations. A sparse network of unpaved desert routes, such as Searles Station Rd and Steamwells Rd, provides access across the basin and range, reflecting the isolation of this corner of San Bernardino County. The dominance of Trona Rd as the primary north-south artery highlights the corridor's role in connecting the region's mining and chemical industrial centers.
