The Sawtooth Range creates a striking eastern boundary for this expanse of the Mojave Desert in San Bernardino County. This arid landscape is defined by the broad drainage of the Chemehuevi Wash, which flows through the southwestern corner toward the Chemehuevi Valley. The eponymous Snaggletooth peak serves as a prominent landmark for travelers navigating US Rte 95, which bisects the eastern portion of the sheet. Modern desert infrastructure is clearly delineated, showing the convergence of Havasu Lake Rd and Turtle Mountain Rd as they link this remote territory to the Colorado River region to the east. The map provides a clear view of the Public Land Survey System grid, including boundaries for t6n r21e and t5n r22e, reflecting how this vast open space is systematically partitioned.
