2018 Map of Stepladder Mountains SW
USGS Topo · Published 2018About this map
Stepladder Mountains dominate the eastern reaches of this desert landscape, where the peaks descend into the broad, alluvial expanses of Ward Valley. The terrain is defined by an intricate network of ephemeral drainage systems, most notably Homer Wash, which traverses the central corridor of the quadrangle. These dry beds, including Big Wash and Colton Wash, illustrate the historical water flow patterns through the Mojave Desert that once dictated travel and settlement possibilities in this arid region.
