About this map

Tulare Lake Bed dominates the northern reaches of this Kings County landscape, revealing an era of intensive land management and agricultural engineering. The map documents the vast basin floor defined by the Cohn Levee and West Side Levee, infrastructure critical to controlling the fluctuating waters of what was once California's largest freshwater lake. To the south, the topography rises into Dudley Ridge, where the contour lines contrast sharply with the level lakebed.
