1971 Map of Vidal NW

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

The Turtle Mountains dominate the northern horizon of this San Bernardino County landscape, rising sharply above the expansive Vidal Valley. This 1971 survey highlights a region of significant infrastructure crossing the arid terrain, most notably the Colorado River Aqueduct as it cuts diagonally across the valley floor. The map documents the vital transportation and utility corridors of the early 1970s, including the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad line running through the southern section near Vidal. Local topography is punctuated by prominent landmarks such as Negro Peak, providing essential orientation points for those navigating the numerous Jeep Trails that spiderweb across the alluvial fans and desert floor.
