1992 Map of Rogers Lake South

About this map

Edwards Air Force Base dominates this landscape on the border of Kern and Los Angeles counties, serving as the operations hub for the Air Force Flight Test Center. The terrain is defined by the vast, flat expanse of Rogers Lake, which provides a natural landing surface for aerospace testing. This 1991 field-checked survey reveals a specialized military infrastructure, including a Tracking Station, a Radio Facility, and a designated Disposal Area. Away from the flight line, the map transitions into the high desert landscape near Mt Mesa, where a grid of rural routes such as 210th Street East and Avenue B meet the Military Reservation Boundary. Small-scale industrial activity is present in the form of a Gravel Pit and a remote Mine, illustrating the intersection of military defense and local resource extraction.
