The western edges of the Mojave Desert define this landscape, where the arid flats meet the rising slopes of the Shadow Mountains. In the southern portion of the sheet, the expanding residential grids of Adelanto and the northwest corner of Victorville indicate the ongoing growth of these High Desert communities. The terrain is marked by the broad, sandy corridor of the Fremont Wash, which winds through the center of the map, carving a path between the developed neighborhoods of Shadow Hills and the open desert to the north.
