1972 Map of Yucca Valley South

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

Yucca Valley serves as the northern gateway to the high desert wilderness captured in this 1970s survey. The map documents the community's mid-century expansion with residential streets like Benecia Drive and Kickapoo Trail bordering the Joshua Tree National Monument. To the south, the landscape transitions into the steep slopes of the Little San Bernardino Mountains, where local topography is punctuated by numerous named peaks including North Park Peak and Burnt Mountain. This era shows a community in balance with its environment, featuring the Black Rock Canyon Campground and several water sources such as Rattlesnake Spring and the seasonally arid Chuckawalla Bill Spring. Scattered Prospects throughout the northern canyons point to the area's mineral exploration history, while the local infrastructure is anchored by the High Sch and Hospital.
