2021 Map of Emigrant Hill

USGS Topo · Published 2021

About this map

The Pyramid Hills and Kettleman Hills define the western edge of the San Joaquin Valley on this 2021 landscape, where the transition from high desert peaks to the agricultural floor of the Antelope Plain is marked by intensive water management. The massive Governor Edmund G Brown Coastal Branch California Aqueduct snakes across the northern terrain near Emigrant Hill, while the Berrenda Mesa Canal cuts through the southern reaches of Antelope Valley. These engineering works support the industrial-scale farming operations that dominate the region, including the area surrounding the private Wonderful Pistachios & Almonds Airport. Named summits like Wagon Wheel Mtn and Mt Vernon provide a backdrop to a landscape that balances traditional livestock grazing terrain with the precision of modern California desert agriculture.
