The southern shoreline of the Salton Sea dominates this 2012 survey of the Imperial Valley, where the New River empties into the saline basin. This landscape is defined by an intricate network of irrigation infrastructure essential to the region's agricultural economy. The map traces a dense grid of canals, laterals, and drains, including the Vail Canal, Vail Lateral Five, and numerous branches of the Trifolium system such as Trifolium Lateral Nine and Trifolium Twelve Drain.
