1913 Map of Bishop
USGS Topo · Published 1930About this map
The Owens River valley serves as the central artery for this high-desert landscape, where agricultural settlements like Bishop and Big Pine are defined by a complex network of canals and creeks. At the time of this 1910–1911 survey, the Southern Pacific (Keeler Branch) railroad connected these valley towns to the world, running through Laws and Zurich. The map captures a moment when rural education was highly localized, evidenced by numerous facilities such as Riverside School, Sunland School, and Fish Springs School scattered across the basin.
