The city of Avenal anchors the southeastern corner of this Central Valley landscape, situated at the edge of the Kettleman Plain. This survey illustrates the transition from the relatively flat valley floor of the San Joaquin Valley into the complex topography of the Kettleman Hills. The terrain is defined by a dense network of seasonal drainages, including Arroyo Recto, Arroyo Seco, and Arroyo Corto, which have carved intricate patterns into features like The Washboard and El Hocico.
