1954 Map of Hacienda Ranch NW

About this map

The expansive Tulare Lake Bed dominates this landscape, showing the complex system of reclamation and irrigation in the mid-1950s. Managed by the State of California and its engineers, the area is defined by a rigid grid of agricultural canals and levees designed to control the bottomlands of this ancient terminal lake. The map reveals the industrial scale of farming at South Lake Farms, supported by a dedicated Landing Strip for aerial operations.
