1954 Map of Burris Park

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

The Kings River dominates this landscape where Fresno, Kings, and Tulare counties meet, illustrating an intricate mid-century water management system. The map documents a complex network of irrigation features such as the Peoples Ditch, Lakeland Canal, and Settlers Ditch, which were essential to the agricultural development of the Central Valley. In addition to these man-made waterways, the natural course of the river is diverted through Cole Slough and Dutch John Cut, highlighting the historical effort to control seasonal flows and reclaim land for farming.
