2012 Map of Red Canyon

About this map

Bradshaw Rd follows a winding path across this arid landscape in eastern Riverside County, tracing a route that connects the low-lying washes with the elevation of the Orocopia Mountains. This 2012 survey illustrates the remote desert character of the region, where water sources are vital landmarks for travelers and locals alike. Points such as Gucci Spring and Canyon Spring are noted along the drainage systems that feed into Salt Cr. The namesake Red Canyon cuts through the southeastern portion of the map, revealing the intricate drainage patterns and geological formations that define this part of the Colorado Desert. The lack of modern development highlight's the area's role as a rugged corridor through the southern California wilderness.
