About this map

Antelope Valley transitions from the high desert floor toward the rising slopes of the Sierra Madre in this 1930 survey. The landscape is defined by its arid hydrology and early grid-based development, with Buckhorn Dry Lake marking the northern reaches near the Kern Los Angeles Co Line. Settlement is sparse but organized, anchored by local education centers such as Antelope Sch and Redman Sch. The presence of numerous wells scattered across the township lines underscores the vital importance of water access for the ranches and homesteads developing along Redman Road and Darrwin Road. This map captures a specific moment in the Mojave's agricultural history, showing the interplay between section-line roads and the natural desert terrain before the intensive suburbanization of the later twentieth century.
