About this map

China Lake Naval Weapons Center occupies a significant portion of this high-desert landscape in the early 1980s, reflecting the region's long-standing role in military testing and aerospace research. The terrain is defined by large, arid basins such as Little Cactus Flat and Big Cactus Flat, punctuated by isolated water sources like Upper Centennial Spring and Upper Haiwee Spring. This combination of extreme isolation and topographic variation provided the ideal conditions for sensitive government operations and mining prospects.
