2018 Map of Savahia Peak SW

About this map

The Mopah Range dominates the southwestern portion of this desert landscape, characterized by the intricate drainage patterns that define the eastern Mojave Desert. This 2018 survey documents the arid transition from the mountain slopes down into the Vidal Valley, where Gary Wash meanders across the northern sections of the quadrangle. The physical geography is marked by distinctive geological formations like Pyramid Butte, which stands as a clear landmark in the east. US Rte 95 provides the primary north-south transit corridor through this remote corner of San Bernardino County, cutting through the desert flats and connecting the sparse topography of the region. The map captures the surveyed township and range lines of the Public Land Survey System, illustrating how this open terrain is organized across the t2n r22e and t3n r22e boundaries.
