About this map

The Tuolumne River winds through this agricultural landscape towards its confluence with the San Joaquin River, defining the western edge of Modesto. In the late 1960s, the area south of the city was a grid of orchards and fields partitioned by an intricate network of irrigation ditches, including Lateral No 1 and Lower Lateral No 2. This region is characterized by historical land grants like Rancho El Pescadero and Rancho Del Puerto, reflecting the deep-rooted ranching history of Stanislaus County. Local education is centered around rural outposts such as Westport Union Sch and Shiloh Sch, while the southwestern corner features the prominent Sewage Disposal Ponds and the natural depression of Brush Lake near the river banks.
