Rancho Mirage and Palm Desert demonstrate the rapid transition from dense desert floor development to the protected wilderness of the Santa Rosa Mountains during the late 1990s. The map captures a sophisticated urban layout including the College of the Desert and the high-end corridor of El Paseo, contrasted sharply by the extensive Santa Rosa Mountains State Game Refuge.
