Hey all, a while back I made a map of New California in Fallout 1 and 2 because I wanted to find real locations for every place in the games and the routes between them. I'm posting after deciding to on a recent thread
here.
It bothered me that Fallout 1 and 2 had different locations for Mariposa, V13 and Shady Sands, so I found definitive locations for them based on the lore provided, and found a way to make both map's fit them within their borders. Like V13 being under Mt. Whitney irl, according the the survival guide. I also included locations mentioned in New Vegas, and a little 3/4ths of the NV map.
This post will be a little long, sorry if the images are large.
Vaults are blue dots (kinda hard to see, unfortunately) and settlements are red dots.

And I even found the scene from the Fallout 4 Intro!-
