About this map

The massive basin of Lake Elsinore dominates the southern landscape of this Riverside County quadrangle, showing the expansive shoreline adjacent to Lakeland Village. In the northeast, the San Jacinto River feeds into Canyon Lake, also identified as the Railroad Reservoir, where the water is fragmented into numerous bays such as Mariners Bay and Holiday Bay around Skippers Island.

Evidence of historical industry and transportation remains visible through labels like Durant Siding and the settlement of Terra Cotta. High-ground landmarks provide geographical context for the surrounding valley, including the Rome Hill Lookout and the Elsinore Mountains to the southwest. The developed areas of North Elsinore and the Warm Springs Valley are contrasted by more rural northern features like the Hammack Ranch. Genealogists may find the Elsinore Valley Cem particularly useful for tracing local family history within the town's shifting boundaries.
