1982 Map of Petroglyph Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

The China Lake Naval Weapons Center dominates this high-desert landscape in the early 1980s, preserving a rugged corridor of the Coso Range. The map reveals a terrain defined by deep volcanic and erosional features, most notably the Petroglyph Canyon and its designated site of Big Petroglyphs, indicating the deep cultural history of the area prior to its modern military use. This area represents a transition between the high mesa of Wild Horse Mesa and the broken canyon systems to the west.
