1982 Map of Troy Lake

About this map

The arid landscape of the Mojave Valley dominates this 1982 provisional survey, centered on the expansive floor of Troy Lake (Dry Lake). To the east, the Cady Mountains rise sharply, while the southern margin is defined by the Rodman Mountains. This desert basin serves as a corridor for significant industrial infrastructure, marked by several underground gas pipelines and a clay borrow pit near the center of the lake bed. Local history is anchored at Poe (Site), a named location situated near a distinct field of Lava. The presence of Kane Wash and numerous dry wells across the valley floor illustrates the extreme water management challenges of the Mojave region during this era.
