About this map

The Bullion Mountains dominate this high desert landscape within San Bernardino County, where military operations and infrastructure define the mid-century terrain. Published during the governorship of Goodwin J. Knight, the map reveals a vast expanse designated as the Marine Corps Training Center, intersected in the northern reaches by a Naval Reservation Boundary. This area represents a critical period of desert land use, where rugged topography met the strategic needs of the United States military. A solitary Pipeline cuts across the northeast corner, providing a glimpse into the industrial efforts required to support activity in such an arid environment. The map effectively captures the transition of the Bullion Mts from wilderness to a specialized military training ground during the early 1950s.
