2021 Map of Pinto Wells

USGS Topo · Published 2021

About this map

Joshua Tree National Park encompasses much of this desert terrain, where the low-lying Pinto Basin meets the dramatic rises of the Coxcomb Mountains and Eagle Mountains. This 2021 survey illustrates the modern intersection of natural preservation and critical infrastructure, most notably the path of the Colorado River Aqueduct as it traverses the southern portion of the quadrangle. The hydrology is dominated by the seasonal Pinto Wash, which drains through the heart of the park toward the Mojave Desert and Chuckwalla Valley. In the southwest corner, the landscape grows increasingly complex near Bold Eagle Canyon. The presence of Phone Line Rd along the southern margin represents one of the few human-engineered routes through this otherwise protected wilderness area, highlighting the sparse, managed accessibility typical of this part of Riverside County.
