2021 Map of West of Drinkwater Lake

About this map

The Granite Mountains dominate the northern portion of this arid landscape, providing a sharp contrast to the open expanses of the Mojave Desert that stretch across the southern sections. This territory is primarily defined by its topographic complexity and the rigid survey lines of the Public Land Survey System, including T16n R3e, T16n R2e, T15n R2e, and T15n R3e. In an area where permanent human settlements are absent, the map documents the natural contours and drainage patterns that have shaped this high-desert environment. For those studying the geography of San Bernardino County, this sheet provides a high-resolution look at a remote wilderness area before any modern developments or structural changes to the land.
