1958 Map of Orocopia Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

Orocopia Mountains dominate this arid landscape, characterized by the dramatic relief of the Orocopia Canyon and the desert floor's transition toward the Chocolate Mountain range. Human intervention in this environment is clearly marked by the infrastructure of the Coachella Canal, which cuts across the southern portion of the sheet. The engineering of this waterway is underscored by numerous technical features including a Levee, Dike, and several Siphons.
