1982 Map of Manix

USGS Topo · Published 1993

About this map

The Mojave River winds through this high desert corridor in the early 1980s, carving a green-tinted valley between the Cady Mountains and the northern Mojave Valley. The landscape is defined by the vital transit routes that follow this natural basin, including the heavy rail lines of the Union Pacific and the path of Interstate 15. Historical markers of settlement and survival are scattered across the arid terrain, from the Camp Cady (Site) and nearby Camp Cady Ranch to the lonely Fourmile Waterhole along the riverbed. Water remains the dominant theme in this dry expanse, evidenced by the presence of Cady Spring and the vast Troy Lake (Dry) to the south. Distinctive geological features like Soldier Mtn, The Knob, and shifting Sand Dunes rise above the alluvial washes, while the Vortac Facility near Manix represents the mid-century's technological layer upon this ancient desert crossing.
