About this map

The Colorado River forms a critical border between California and Arizona at the northern edge of this desert landscape, where the waters of Lost Lake sit near the transition to the Sacramento Mountains. To the south, the topography is dominated by the Whale Mtn massif and the northern reaches of the Chemehuevi Mountains, separated by drainage systems like Bat Cave Wash and Mohave Wash. This area serves as a significant transit corridor through the Mojave Desert, marked by the path of Hst Rte 66 and Us Rte 95. The industrial footprint is visible through the S Cal Gas Pipe Line Rd, which traverses the arid terrain west of Whale Mtn. Cultural and topographic landmarks like Lobecks Pass provide specific points of reference for those tracing historical travel routes across the San Bernardino County line.
