1957 Map of Yuha Basin

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

The international boundary between the United States and Mexico defines the southern edge of this arid landscape, where the Colorado Desert meets the Imperial Valley. Dominating the topography are the Shell Beds and Yuha Buttes, landforms that reveal the ancient marine history of the Yuha Basin. The map captures a transition from the natural erosional features of Pinto Wash and Yuha Wash to the engineered irrigation of the valley's edge, marked by the W Side Main Canal and Dixie Drain 2.
