1992 Map of Wister

About this map

The eastern shore of the Salton Sea dominates this 1990s landscape, revealing a highly engineered environment where desert ecology meets large-scale irrigation and military operations. The Imperial State Wildlife Area (Wister Unit) occupies a significant portion of the shoreline, managed through a complex network of water controls including Niland Lateral 1 and Niland Lateral 5. This irrigation infrastructure is essential for maintaining the habitat in a region where the elevation sits more than 200 feet below sea level.
