1959 Map of Rabbit Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

The Santa Rosa Mountains dominate this landscape, rising sharply from the desert floor to the high summits of Rabbit Peak and Villager Peak. The map documents a stark topographical transition where the steep, deeply eroded terrain of Sheep Canyon and Alamo Canyon meets the agricultural fringes of the Coachella Valley. Along the northeastern corner, the geometric layout of Oasis Street and Fillmore Street contrasts with the surrounding wilderness, marking the edge of human cultivation supported by the Oasis Lateral. Much of the southern and western portions are protected within the Anza Borrego Desert State Park, where a state park boundary runs alongside the county line between Riverside and San Diego Counties. The presence of a Jeep Trail suggests the limited accessibility of these desert reaches during the mid-century mapping period.
