1953 Map of Emigrant Hill

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Hannah Ranch and Yribarren Ranch sit within the arid landscape of western Kern County, where the transition from the Pyramid Hills to the broad Antelope Plain defines the geography. This mid-century survey documents a working landscape focused on livestock and early resource extraction, evident in the cluster of Oil Wells near Mt Vernon. The infrastructure of the era is captured through the presence of the Temblor Pumping Sta and Junction Pumping Sta, which supported the region's industrial and agricultural needs.
