1992 Map of Westmorland West

About this map

The Salton Sea National Wildlife Refuge dominates the northern reaches of this landscape, situated along the shoreline of the Salton Sea. This 1990s revision reveals an intricate hydraulic environment defined by the New River and an extensive network of irrigation infrastructure. The terrain is subdivided by engineered waterways such as the Vail Canal, Trifolium Drain, and the Westside Main Canal, illustrating the heavy reliance on water management for agricultural production in the Imperial Valley. Near the eastern edge, the settlement of Westmorland appears at the junction of several lateral lines. The presence of numerous Pits and a Gaging Sta along the river highlights the active monitoring and modification of this low-lying basin, where protective Levee systems separate the managed fields from the expansive waters of the sea.
