2018 Map of Seventeenmile Point

About this map

Mojave National Preserve encompasses the central expanse of this 2018 survey, documenting a stark desert landscape defined by high-elevation landforms and seasonal drainages. The namesake Seventeenmile Point rises in the northeast corner of the quadrangle, serving as a significant topographical anchor within the Mojave Desert. To the southwest, the distinctive peaks of Cowhole Mtn and Little Cowhole Mtn emerge from the basin floor, while ephemeral water features like Willow Wash and Indian Cr trace the natural drainage patterns that shape this arid environment. This map details the complex terrain and public land boundaries during a period of modern preservation, providing a clear record of the intersection between prominent geological formations and established protected lands in San Bernardino County.
