1952 Map of Palen Mountains

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

The Chuckwalla Valley and the surrounding desert landscape are defined by high-heat terrain and sparse outposts in this mid-century survey. Human presence is concentrated around vital infrastructure like the Colorado River Aqueduct and the isolated Coxcomb Landing Strip. To the east, the Granite Mountains and Palen Mountains rise sharply above the basin floor, connected by the high crossing at Palen Pass.
