2018 Map of West of Black Hills

About this map

Lava Mountains dominate this high-desert landscape in the northwestern portion of the Mojave Desert. The terrain transitions from the rugged volcanic uplands of the range into the expansive flats of Searles Valley to the north. This 2018 survey provides a clear view of the complex land management boundaries across Township 28 and 29 South, including ranges 42 and 43 East. The absence of modern roads or settlements on this specific sheet emphasizes the preservation of the open desert character within San Bernardino County, where topographical contours reveal the drainage patterns and ancient geological formations that define this arid interior.
