1988 Map of Little Chuckwalla Mountains

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

The Little Chuckwalla Mountains dominate the northern terrain of this 1980s quadrangle, where the land falls away into the Black Hills to the south. This arid landscape is marked by a history of resource exploration, indicated by numerous unnamed Prospects and a specific Prospect clustered near the Black Hills. A notable geological point of interest is the Geode Beds located in the southeastern quadrant, a site likely of interest to rockhounds and mineral collectors. The map also records the jurisdictional boundary between Riverside Co and Imperial Co, as well as the path of the Trans Line traversing the central desert plains. The lack of established settlements emphasizes the specialized land use in this desert region, focused on utility infrastructure and small-scale mineral prospecting.
