1960 Map of Arena

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

Arena Canal and a dense network of lateral irrigation ditches, such as the Upper Dallas Lateral and Mc Gilvray Lateral, define this agricultural landscape in the San Joaquin Valley. This 1960 survey, updated through the 1980s, captures a transition from traditional farming to increased development near the town of Atwater. The influence of the Southern Pacific railroad is visible as it cuts through the community of Arena, supporting the region's transport of orchard and field products. To the south, the terrain softens toward the natural drainage of Bear Creek and South Slough, where a Landing Strip and Gaging Sta 108 suggest the dual priorities of aviation and water management in this flat, managed basin.
