Superior Lake dominates the northern landscape of this Mojave Desert region in San Bernardino County. This 2012 survey captures a remote basin defined by its ephemeral hydrology and a network of desert routes that reflect the area's mining and exploration history. The intersection of Black Canyon Rd and Copper City Rd forms a central transit point, while Old Copper City Rd strikes across the dry lake bed, suggesting older alignments used during earlier periods of activity. To the east, Indian Springs Rd and Goldstone Rd provide access through the arid terrain, illustrating the sparse but deliberate infrastructure required to navigate this portion of the California desert.
