2012 Map of Twentynine Palms

About this map

Twentynine Palms and its surrounding desert communities are defined by a grid of long desert roads and localized water sources like the Oasis of Mara. This 2012 survey shows the residential growth of neighborhoods like Smoke Tree and Harmony Acres, situated against a landscape where traditional infrastructure meets unique desert landmarks. The map details several small aviation facilities including Bauer Airport, Cones Field Airport, and the Dick Dale Skyranch Airport, highlighting the region's reliance on private flight. Historical and cultural sites are scattered across the valley, from the Twentynine Palms Cem and Chemehuevi Indian Cem to local recreation spots such as Knott Sky Park and the nostalgic Smith's Ranch Drive-In. The prominent dry expanse of Mesquite Lake dominates the northern section, illustrating the arid hydrology of San Bernardino County.
