2015 Map of Searles Lake
USGS Topo · Published 2015About this map
Searles Lake dominates this portion of the northern Mojave Desert, revealing a complex landscape of dry lake beds and drainage patterns. The map highlights the vast, arid expanse of the Searles Valley, where the geometric grid of modern land surveying meets the irregular natural boundaries of Teagle Wash. The area is defined by its industrial and transport infrastructure, centered around the salt pan and its surrounding mineral-rich basin. Regional access is dictated by the corridors of Searles Valley Rd and Searles Dry Lake Rd, which provide the primary links through this specialized desert environment. The stark separation between the playa surfaces and the surrounding alluvial fans illustrates the distinct geological character of this San Bernardino County sink.
