1955 Map of Conner SW

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

Agricultural and industrial operations define this mid-1950s landscape in Kern County, where the southern San Joaquin Valley meets the rising terrain of the Pleito Hills. The map captures a moment of intense resource management, characterized by a complex network of infrastructure including a Levee, multiple Pipelines, and a systematic grid of Wells. The presence of the Los Lobos Oil Field in the southwestern quadrant, alongside the Lakeview Labor Camp and a Cotton Gin to the north, illustrates the dual reliance on petroleum extraction and industrial-scale farming. Water management is central to the area's utility, marked by numerous Reservoirs and Water Tanks that support the dry lands between San Emigdio Creek and Los Lobos Creek. Transportation is anchored by the Maricopa Highway and Copus Road, providing essential transit for the region's labor and products.
