2021 Map of Palen Mountains

USGS Topo · Published 2021

About this map

The Palen Mountains dominate this 2021 topographic survey, presenting a stark desert landscape within the Colorado Desert of Riverside County. This map highlights the complex topography of the range, which serves as a significant drainage divide for numerous ephemeral washes and alluvial fans. The survey includes township and range designations such as t4s r18e and t5s r19e, which provide essential reference points for land management and geological study in this uninhabited region. The absence of modern infrastructure or permanent settlements underscores the remote character of this mountain system, focusing entirely on the natural elevation contours and the intricate patterns of dry desert washes.
