2018 Map of Pinyon Mountain

About this map

Sageland stands as a focal point in this high-desert landscape where the Sierra Nevada meets the arid basins of Kern County. The map reveals a network of primitive and improved roads, including S Kelso Valley Rd and Jawbone Canyon Rd, which navigate the complex topography between Saint John Ridge and Pinyon Mtn. Notable for its recreational and navigational importance, the Pacific Crest National Scenic Trail winds through the central and northern sections, crossing near Bright Star Canyon. Water sources such as Tunnel Spring, Willow Spring, and Green Spring are critical markers in this environment, while the presence of the Kelso Valley Airport indicates the region's accessibility for more modern transit. The terrain is defined by dramatic elevation shifts, ranging from the depths of Butterbredt Canyon and Dove Spring Canyon to the summits of Mayan Peak and Gold Peak.
