About this map

Industrial expansion meets high desert terrain in this late-1950s survey of the Caliente Range and the Cuyama Valley. The landscape is defined by its mid-century petroleum development, featuring the Russel Ranch Oil Field and the Morales Canyon Oil Field. These sites are marked by numerous gas wells, an oil refinery, and a landing strip, indicating the infrastructure required to service these remote operations at the edge of the Carrizo Plain.
