Lead Mtn stands as a central topographic prominence within this arid expanse of the Mojave Desert. The map captures a rugged portion of San Bernardino County where the Bullion Mountains rise in the southern reaches, defined by steep contour intervals and desert washes. Transportation through this remote terrain is centered on the historical corridor of the Bagdad Hwy and the connected Bagdad Way, which traverse the lower elevations between the mountain ranges. The landscape is largely undeveloped, shown here through the lens of the Bureau of Land Management’s Public Land Survey System, illustrating the township and range divisions that still govern this open desert territory.
