2015 Map of Fairmont Butte

About this map

Fairmont Butte and the Antelope Buttes dominate this high-desert landscape along the boundary of Kern and Los Angeles counties. This 2015 survey documents the critical infrastructure of the Antelope Valley, specifically the parallel paths of the Los Angeles Aqueduct and the Second Los Angeles Aqueduct as they traverse the arid terrain. The map captures a mix of recreational and industrial utility, showing the Pacific Crest National Scenic Trail winding through the northern hills near Cottonwood Cr while the southern sections are defined by a strict grid of access roads including W Avenue D and W Avenue E. The presence of the Skyotee Ranch Airport and various canyon systems like Broad Canyon further illustrate the transition from undeveloped desert slopes to the organized rural development found near Lancaster Rd.
