2021 Map of Wister

USGS Topo · Published 2021

About this map

The Salton Sea shoreline meets the engineered landscape of the Imperial Valley in this contemporary record of a unique desert environment. The area is defined by an intricate network of irrigation infrastructure, including the Coachella Canal, the E Highline Canal, and a sequence of lateral channels such as Niland Lateral Five through Niland Lateral One. These features illustrate the intensive water management required to support the local settlements of Wister and Mundo. To the east, the terrain rises toward East Mesa, where natural features like Iris Wash contrast with the geometric precision of the canals and drainage systems like Drain 1-A. The map highlights the intersection of natural desert topography and the deliberate human modifications that have shaped this region of Imperial County.
