2015 Map of West of Nelson Lake
USGS Topo · Published 2015About this map
The arid basin of the Mojave Desert defines the landscape in this high-desert region of San Bernardino County. A prominent dry bed, Goldstone Lake, occupies the southeastern portion of the quadrangle, reflecting the ephemeral drainage patterns of the high-altitude terrain. The presence of the small settlement or landmark Mars suggests the specialized activities common to this remote desert corridor during the mid-2010s. Surveyed with the precision of modern standards, the map documents the section lines of various townships, including t28s r47e and t15n r1e, providing a clear grid for understanding the division of public lands in a territory characterized by significant topographic relief and sparse water resources.
