About this map

Thousand Palms Canyon and the surrounding Indio Hills dominate this mid-2010s survey of the Coachella Valley. The map documents a landscape defined by the contrast between arid topographical features like Pushawalla Canyon and the dense, concentrated development of Palm Desert and Myoma along the valley floor. Notable for its many oasis-like groves, the sheet identifies several named palm clusters including Willis Palms, Hidden Palms, and Macomber Palms, which reflect the unique hydrology of the San Andreas Fault zone passing through this region.

Infrastructure in the southern half is well-established, featuring the Bermuda Dunes Airport and the path of the Coachilla Canal. The residential expansion is evident in named neighborhoods like Shadow Ridge Creek and the enclave of Fun Valley. This edition preserves the modern road network, from major arteries like Varner Rd to the trails threading through the hills, such as the W Boundary Trail.
