1967 Map of Red Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

Mining operations and desert infrastructure define this 1960s survey of the high desert in San Bernardino County. The settlement of Atolia is surrounded by a dense concentration of Mines, Trenches, and Tailings Ponds, signaling the area's intense industrial history. Further south, the St Elmo Mine sits near an Old Railroad Grade that once connected these remote camps to wider trade networks. The landscape is dominated by the massif of Red Mountain, while the eastern flats are marked by the Cuddeback Lake Air Force Range. Essential water sources for this arid region are carefully mapped, including the Squaw Spring Well and several unnamed Wells near the dry bed of Cuddeback Lake. This document provides a clear view of the mid-century intersection between resource extraction and military activity in the California interior.
