Crossland SE51-16 — AUSTopo 1:250,000 Topographic Map (2025)

Isolated ranges, desert lakes, and remote community country—mapped with authority across northern Western Australia

Covering Crossland and the surrounding inland country south of the Kimberley, this AUSTopo 1:250,000 sheet provides a clear, authoritative regional view of a vast and sparsely settled landscape. Parallel ridges, low ranges, claypans, swamps, lakes, and widely separated water points create terrain where understanding the relationship between relief, access, and distance is essential.

The sheet includes Barbwire Range, Hall Range, Hicks Range, Jones Range, Kirkby Range, Millyit Range, Worral Range, and Scrivener Hills, together with Lake Merril, Lake Ronnel, Nicholson Swamp, Snowy Claypan, and Tilley Claypan. Remote communities including Djilimbardi, Kurlku, and Purluwarla are also shown, making the map a valuable reference for land managers, researchers, infrastructure teams, emergency coordinators, and experienced remote-area travellers.

At 1:250,000 scale (1 cm = 2.5 km), this is the largest scale at which published topographic maps cover the entire Australian continent—ideal for regional planning, land management, emergency coordination, and serious outback navigation.
