1970 Map of Turtle Valley

About this map

Desert mining operations and wide arid basins define this landscape in the Mojave region of San Bernardino County. Scattered across the rugged slopes of Turtle Mountain and Stoddard Mtn, numerous prospects and established sites like the Altoda Mine speak to a legacy of mineral exploration. The terrain is divided by broad expanses like Brisbane Valley and Turtle Valley, where seasonal drainage patterns such as Wild Wash flow toward the lower elevations.
