About this map

Chemehuevi Wash winds through the arid landscape of the Mojave Desert, serving as a primary natural drainage channel in this corner of San Bernardino County. This 2018 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey illustrates a sparsely populated region where human infrastructure is limited to long-distance transportation routes. US Rte 95 bisects the eastern portion of the map, providing a vital north-south connection across the desert floor, while Turtle Mountain Rd edges into the northwestern corner.

The topography is defined by the broad Chemehuevi Valley, where the land slopes toward the wash systems, including the smaller Gary Wash in the southeast. The map's detail of the Public Land Survey System shows the township and range divisions, such as t4n r22e, which remain largely undeveloped. This document records the desert's natural state before any significant modern encroachment, preserving the original drainage patterns and isolation of the valley.
