2018 Map of Signal Hill

About this map

Billie Mtn and Signal Hill rise as prominent landmarks within the protected expanse of the Mojave National Preserve in this 2018 survey. The landscape is characterized by the transition from the broad alluvial floor of Lanfair Valley to the more varied terrain of Tungsten Flat and the Vontrigger Hills. The eastern edge of the map reveals the steep contours of the Piute Range, where the Piute Canyon and its associated Piute Canyon Loop provide a glimpse into the traditional drainage and travel patterns of this arid region. The lack of modern development emphasizes the desert's character as it was preserved in the early 21st century, showing only a sparse network of 4WD trails and boundary lines that mark the Mojave National Preserve.
