The Mojave Desert terrain dominates this 2018 survey, centered on a sparsely developed portion of San Bernardino County. The landscape is defined by the significant rise of the Bullion Mountains in the southwest corner, which break the desert floor with steep contours and complex drainage patterns. The lack of named settlements or roads emphasizes the primitive state of this interior region, with the map primarily serving to delineate the Public Land Survey System township boundaries, including t6n r8e, t6n r9e, t5n r8e, and t5n r9e. The terrain data captured in this edition provides an essential baseline for understanding the topography of the Southern California desert before any potential modern encroachments.
