1956 Map of Victorville NW

USGS Topo · Published 1993

About this map

Shadow Mountains and the Shadow Hills dominate this portion of the Mojave Desert, where mining and recreation define the use of the arid land. The map reveals a history of extraction through the presence of the Red Raven Mine and various Prospects scattered across the desert slopes. This 1956 survey, updated with 1989 aerial data, shows the expansion of the Adelanto Corporate Boundary and the establishment of the El Mirage Off Highway Vehicle Recreation Area, marking a shift from industrial mining to modern motorized leisure.
