About this map

Salton Sea dominates the northeastern corner of this desert landscape, recorded here during the mid-1950s. The shoreline is marked by a notable elevation of 235 feet below sea level, reflecting the unique terminal lake environment of the Imperial Valley. Military and industrial interests are evident through the Salton Sea Test Base and its specialized B-1 unit along the coast, while several Oil Test Wells inland point to era-specific exploration efforts.
