About this map

Auberry and New Auberry sit at the western edge of this Sierra Nevada foothills landscape, where the terrain begins its steep ascent into the Sierra National Forest. The map shows a transition from the lower ranch lands and creek valleys toward high-altitude features like Big Sandy Bluff and Backbone Mtn. Further east, Meadow Lakes and Alder Springs provide examples of mountain settlements established along the winding paths of Auberry Rd.

In the southern portion of the quadrangle, the community of Tollhouse remains a focal point, situated near the headwaters of Tollhouse Cr. The presence of the Tollhouse Cemetery offers a vital point of interest for genealogists tracing local families in Fresno County. Waterways such as Big Sandy Cr and Jose Cr carve deep drainages through the topography, illustrating the natural water network that has historically dictated road placement and settlement patterns in this part of the California interior.
