1971 Map of Whale Mtn

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

The Colorado River defines the border between California and Arizona in this arid landscape, where the rugged peaks of the Chemehuevi Mountains and Sacramento Mountains dominate the terrain. Industrial footprints are visible through the South Needles Compressor Station and multiple Borrow Pits, while a series of pipelines cut across the desert floor toward Lobecks Pass. Resource extraction is further evidenced by the Blue Boy Mine and various prospects tucked into the mountain draws.
