About this map

The Kern River and its complex network of man-made irrigation channels define this San Joaquin Valley landscape just south of Bakersfield. In the early 1930s, the region was heavily partitioned by agricultural development, with the Buena Vista Canal, Stine Canal, and James Canal cutting across the terrain to support local ranching and farming operations. The layout reveals the essential role of water management in transforming the arid valley floor into productive land, as seen near Bellevue Ranch and the Stockdale Country Club.
