1959 Map of Carneros Rocks

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

The South Belridge Oil Field and surrounding petroleum operations dominate this mid-century look at the western edge of the San Joaquin Valley. This 1959 survey, photorevised in 1982, reveals a landscape defined by industry and geology, from the McDonald Anticline to the Cymric Oil Field. The terrain is characterized by numerous strip mines and seasonal drainage systems like Chico Martinez Creek and Zemorra Creek, which carve through the Bacon Hills.
