1997 Map of Vail Lake

USGS Topo · Published 2000

About this map

The Pauba Grant and the sprawling Agua Tibia Wilderness dominate this corner of Riverside County in the late 1990s. The landscape is defined by the sharp transition from the open waters of Vail Lake and the Aguanga Valley to the steep, wooded reaches of the Cleveland National Forest. Evidence of early twentieth-century occupation and travel remains visible through markers like the Crosley Homestead and the historic alignment of the Butterfield Stage Road winding through Lancaster Valley. In the high country, remote landmarks such as Eagle Crag and Crosley Saddle serve as anchor points for rugged trails like the Palomar Divide Tr and Magee Trail. This revision highlights the area's complex geography, from the Cahuilla Indian Reservation in the south to the small settlement of Radec, providing a detailed look at the rural backcountry before modern expansion.
