About this map

Anza-Borrego Desert State Park dominates this 1950s survey, revealing a landscape defined by seasonal water sources and early desert transit routes. The presence of numerous named desert oases, such as Hellhole Palms, Maidenhair Falls, and Yaqui Well, underscores the critical importance of reliable hydrology in this arid region. From the elevations of Pinyon Ridge and the Grapevine Hills, the terrain descends into the broad expanse of Borrego Valley, where the burgeoning settlement of Borrego Springs is visible alongside the established Chimney Rock Ranch.
