1972 Map of Bena

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

The Southern Pacific railroad winds through the complex topography of the Tehachapi foothills on this 1970s survey, connecting the small settlements of Bena, Ilmon, and Caliente. The landscape is defined by its transit history, featuring steep climbs like the Baker Grade and the Chimo Grade, which provided access to the high plateau country of Pampa Peak and Chimo Flat. Along the lower elevations, the El Tejon boundary suggests the region's ranching heritage, supported by numerous water sources such as Billy Spring and Haypress Spring.
