1953 Map of Bachelor Mtn.

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

Skinner Reservoir dominates the center of this landscape, reflecting its expansion during the early 1970s. The map illustrates a transitional period for rural Riverside County, where water infrastructure like the San Diego Aqueduct and local siphons began to reshape traditional agricultural valleys. The topography is defined by the prominent Bachelor Mtn and Skunk Hollow, while the drainage of Tucalota Creek and Santa Gertrudis Creek carves through the southern terrain toward Pauba Valley. Cultural history is noted through rural education landmarks, including the Alamos Sch and the Hyatt Sch (Aband). Evidence of local industry and settlement is found in several scattered Quarries and a Trailer Park near the southern margin. This survey captures the area just as suburban development and massive water projects began to overtake the historic ranching valleys.
