The Landers site is about two hundred yards east of Landers Lane, a paved highway with relatively little traffic. A low hill blocks light from the paved road.
Dirt roads border the property on the west and north.
The property lines are set back about fifteen feet from these roads. Utility lines with a few standard telephone poles run north-south across the western border. The ground is smooth, with no rocks, holes, hills, or washes, and slopes very slightly uphill to the east. Three or four Joshua trees, and numerous large scrub bushes are the only significant foliage. On the other side of the valley, about three miles away, rows of houses can be seen.
