1948 Map of Tiefort Mountains

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

Camp Irwin Military Reservation dominates this high-desert landscape in the late 1940s, serving as a significant training ground during the postwar era. The map delineates the operational infrastructure of Camp Irwin at the southern edge, including a specialized Firing Range and Sewage Disposal facilities. The terrain is defined by the stark transition between the dry beds of Bicycle Lake and Drinkwater Lake and the imposing heights of the Tiefort Mountains and Granite Mountains. Localized water sources like Drinkwater Spring and Devouge Spring punctuate the arid surroundings, while a small Cem located within the reservation boundaries provides a quiet point of interest for genealogists and military historians tracking the development of this California desert outpost.
