About this map

The Governor Edmund G Brown California Aqueduct and its Coastal Branch dominate this portion of the San Joaquin Valley, illustrating the complex water infrastructure essential to this region. This landscape is defined by the topographical shift from the Kettleman Hills and Pyramid Hills down toward the Antelope Plain and Kettleman Plain.

Several named sites and landform features are identified throughout the survey, including Las Perillas, Las Colinas, and El Vejón, providing valuable reference points for local history researchers. Significant natural markers such as Avenal Gap, Pintojo Ridge, and Alamo Solo Spring offer a look at the physical geography of the area as it transitioned between Kings and Kern counties in the late 2010s.
