About this map

The Naval Petroleum Reserve No 1 dominates the complex terrain of the Elk Hills in this 1950s study of Kern County's industrial landscape. The map reveals a dense network of energy infrastructure, including the 35-R Gas Plant and 3-G Gas Plant, alongside numerous Oil Wells and Oil Tanks. Human settlement within this petroleum-focused area is marked by Camp 36-R, while Skyline Road and Skyline trace the ridges of the hills.
