The SEZ spans a distance of about 11 45 mi (72 km) between the points farthest west and east, but it has an irregular shape with a large 12 excluded central area (see Figure 9.4.1.1-1). The eastern boundary of the site is about 6 mi 13 (10 km) west of the Arizona border. The western boundary abuts and surrounds a portion of 14 Joshua Tree National Park. The nearest towns with populations greater than 10,000 are Blythe, 15 located about 6 mi (10 km) southeast of the SEZ with a 2008 population of 21,727; and Indio, 16 located about 45 mi (72 km) west of the SEZ on I-10, with a 2008 population of 84,443. The 17 small town of Desert Center (2000 population of 150) is located at the far southwestern edge of 18 the SEZ, along I-10. 19 20 The SEZ is located in Riverside County in southeastern California. In 2008, the county 21 population was 84,443. The closest large cities are Moreno Valley, San Bernardino, and 22 Riverside (all located slightly more than 100 mi [161 km] west of the SEZ on I-10.

  • Compliance Archaeology Has Tended to Focus on Specific Locations of Sites, While the Broader Landscape of Traditional Use Areas
    ARCHAEOLOGICAL TRAILS AND ETHNOGRAPHIC TRAILS: CAN THEY MEET? RUTH ARLENE MUSSER-LOPEZ ARCHAEOLOGICAL HERITAGE ASSOCIATES (RIVER AHA) STEVE MILLER BUREAU OF LAND MANAGEMENT, LAKE HAVASU FIELD OFFICE Compliance archaeology has tended to focus on specific locations of sites, while the broader landscape of traditional use areas, travel corridors, and places named in tradition is often overlooked. An opportunity for landscape-level analysis presented itself in a proposed large Off Highway Vehicle (OHV) open area adjacent to the Colorado River. While a continuous Salt Song Trail may not be physically manifest, researchers found evidence of a corridor including trail segments, stacked rock features (“prayer shrines”), and short-term camps. When taken into consideration with prehistoric events and places named in ethnographies and current traditional practices, these fragmented segments may be components of the Salt Song Trail. The Salt Song Trail and other ethnographic trails in the Mojave Desert are elements of very large- scale ethnographic landscapes. These landscapes include the land, its springs, passes, and notable peaks; the fossil traces of human behavior ranging from stone tool manufacture, sheltering, and ceremony; and the empirically observable tread or alignment of the trail itself (Figure 1). The difficulty lies in linking, or attempting to link, archaeological observations characterized by very specific locations to named ethnographic trails, which in most cases have only generalized provenience and which, in some cases, may not have an actual physical referent. The purpose of this paper is to share tentative findings of recent fieldwork in Standard Basin, Arizona, a large drainage situated on the eastern side of the Colorado River south of Lake Havasu City.

    .' . 2-28-7~ OUTLINE HISTORY OF COLORADO RIVER DEVELOPMENT by Ival V. Goslin I 0 Introduction The history of the development of the Colorado River should read like a novel. Certainly such a history has all the elements of a heart-rending story--tragedy, pathos, comedy, romance, and human interest. An outline, such as this paper must be, will lack the qualities of a novel, yet it is hoped that part of the events enumerated will serve as a background for understanding the influences that have led to present conditions and for analyzing the consequences and relative values of alternative choices with respect to future development. A word of caution is offered. This paper has been prepared from the viewpoint of the author who has spent over 21 years on Colorado River prob­ lems. The events selected to outline the historical development of the river naturally reflect his biases as well as his judgment. Many other events of historical significance could have been included, and another writer may have placed different emphasis or other interpretations on certain parts of the material discussed. II. Exploration - Navigation A. Early Explorers Navigation was the first use made of the lower mainstem of the Colo­ rado River by white men. l / As early as 1539, Ulloa, exploring what was believed to be a strait, sailed to the head of the Gulf of California. He noted the turbid condition of the water, and guessed that a great river entered 11 The earliest explorers were Spanish. Of a large number, Ulloa, Alarcon, Diaz, Coronado, Cardenas, and Onate appear to be the most out­ standing in bringing knowledge to the world about the lower Colorado River.

  • OUTLINE of EARLY HISTORY of COLORADO RIVER DEVELOPMENT
    ( \. OUTLINE of EARLY HISTORY OF COLORADO RIVER DEVELOPMENT IvaI V. Goslin Executive Director Upper Colorado River Commission Colorado Water Summer. Workshop sponsored by Department of History Western State College and Colorado Water Congress July 20, 1976 o SALT lA*'E CITY ",,, COLORADO RIVER BASIN UPPER COLORADO RiVER COMMISSION f974 OUTLINE of EARLY HISTORY OF COLORADO RIVER DEVELOPMENT I. Introduction As my part of this presentation on "The Colorado River Compact of 1922 and Related Compacts and Treaties, I' Mr. Sparks and I decided upon what we believe is a logical division of the subject matter in order to avoid too much repetition and at the same time cover as broad a spectrum as possible within the allotted time. Here is what we are going to try to do. Because this Colorado Water Summer Workshop -is sponsored by the De­ partment of History of Western State College as well as by the Colorado Water Congress, I am going to try in a somewhat sketchy outline form to portray for you 'some of the early history of development of the water resources of the Colorado River Basin in order that you may better under­ stand what has happened in the past, and how we have arrived at our present state of precarious confusion. It is hoped that alTIOng the events cited there will be those that will serve as a background for understanding the influences that have led to present conditions, and for your analysis of the relative values of alternative choices with respect to future develop­ ment. After I have attempted to bolster your knowledge of the evolution of what we call the "law of the river" which is comprised of numerous compacts, subcompacts, laws, court decrees, operating principles, and an international treaty, Mr.
