2018 Map of Rabbit Peak

About this map

The Santa Rosa Mountains dominate this high-desert landscape, defined by the sharp ascent of Rabbit Peak and Villager Peak along the border of Riverside and San Diego counties. The terrain transitions from the dramatic verticality of Sheep Canyon and Barton Canyon in the west to the encroaching residential and agricultural grid of the Coachella Valley in the northeast. This interface between undeveloped mountain wilderness and the organized township system is marked by early-century surveying lines, including t8s r7e and t8s r8e. While the western half of the map remains largely roadless, the eastern edge shows the structured expansion of Thermal and the southern valley via corridors like Polk St, Tyler St, and Shurr Way.
