2018 Map of Lead Mountain NE

About this map

The Bullion Mountains dominate the southern portion of this high-desert landscape, rising sharply from the basin floor within the Mojave Desert of San Bernardino County. The map details a transition from the complex contour intervals of the mountain range to the more level terrain of the northern flats. Transport through this arid environment is marked by a handful of established desert routes, including the Bagdad Hwy, which cuts across the central-western section. To the northeast, the presence of America Mine Rd and Bristol Dry Lake Rd points to the region's history of mineral extraction and proximity to the evaporative basins that characterize this part of the California desert. The survey reflects the contemporary layout of public land divisions, mapping out numerous townships and ranges that overlay the natural topography.
