The Middle Mountains dominate this 1980s landscape, marking a rugged terrain used extensively for military operations and resource exploration. Much of the territory falls within the Yuma Proving Ground, where the desert floor is etched with the drainage of Indian Wash, Los Angeles Wash, and Castle Dome Wash. Evidence of man-made water management is visible through a series of Check Dams situated along the lower slopes leading toward the Castle Dome Plain.
