2012 Map of Rancho Mirage

About this map

The Rancho Mirage and Palm Desert corridor transitions abruptly from organized desert resort life to the untamed wilderness of the San Jacinto and Santa Rosa mountains. This 2012 survey illustrates the sharp edge of development where residential streets like Sahara Rd and Magnesia Falls Dr terminate against the steep drainage of Magnesia Spring Canyon. To the south, the landscape is defined by remote peaks and water sources including Asbestos Mountain, Haystack Mountain, and Potrero Spring, providing a detailed look at the drainage patterns of Dead Indian Cr and Carrizo Cr. The map captures the suburban footprint of Cahuilla Hills and established leisure landmarks such as the Shadow Mountain Golf Course, while preserving the location of older landmarks like the Shumway Ranch in the high desert terrain.
