USGS Topo · Published 1958About this map
The Torres Martinez Indian Reservation occupies much of this arid landscape, which is defined by a complex network of ephemeral watercourses and desert landmarks. Surveyed in the mid-1950s, the area shows the rugged character of the Santa Rosa Mountains and the lower reaches near the Salton Sea. Vital water sources for travelers and residents are marked at Seventeen Palms, Four Palms Spring, and Tippy Spring, highlighting the critical importance of these desert oases.
