Pinto Mountains define the central landscape of this desert quadrangle, where a cluster of mining claims marks a legacy of extraction near the San Bernardino and Riverside county line. The northern reaches are dominated by the dry expanse of Dale Lake, while the southern portion transitions into the protected lands of the Joshua Tree National Monument and the Joshua Tree Wilderness. This area, once a center of prospecting, is anchored by the New Dale townsite.
