1983 Map of Little Maria Mts

About this map

The Little Maria Mountains dominate this 1980s landscape in Riverside County, revealing a terrain defined by arid hydrology and early resource extraction. Water sources are scarce, marked primarily by Tank Spring and the notably inactive Browns Well (Dry). The survey highlights the network of Dry Wash channels that cut through the topography, illustrating the drainage patterns of this desert environment. Human activity is evidenced by scattered industrial sites, including several Prospect points and a Mine, which suggest the area's history of mineral exploration. Transport through this portion of the Mojave is limited to the established Midland Road and several rugged paths labeled as Jeep Trail, which provide access to the interior of the range.
