1973 Map of Rogers Lake South

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Edwards Air Force Base dominates this desert landscape, where the vast dry expanse of Rogers Lake serves as a natural runway for aeronautical testing. The map details the infrastructure of the Air Force Flight Test Center in the early 1970s, including specialized sites like the Tracking Station and a Radio Facility. The southern portion of the sheet transitions into a desert plateau marked by Mt Mesa, where the terrain is crisscrossed by a grid of numbered streets such as 165th St and 210th Street, along with various Jeep Trails. Beyond the military operations, evidence of local industry remains through several labeled Mines, Prospects, and a Gravel Pit. The map also captures the political geography where the Kern Co Los Angeles Co line intersects the Military Reservation Boundary.
