Los Lobos Oil Field and a network of ephemeral watercourses dominate this Kern County landscape, illustrating the industrial and agricultural infrastructure of the southern San Joaquin Valley. The massive Governor Edmund G Brown California Aqueduct cuts horizontally across the terrain, serving as a primary artery for water transport alongside the Kern Ditch County Drain. These man-made features contrast with the natural drainage patterns of San Emigdio Cr, Los Lobos Cr, and Pleitito Cr which flow northward toward the valley floor. Near the eastern edge, the Lakeview Labor Camp provides a specific point of interest for those studying the local labor history and settlement patterns associated with the region's intensive agriculture. A grid of roads including Copus Rd and Old River Rd connects these industrial and agricultural sites across the arid plains.
