1956 Map of Holtville West

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

Agricultural precision in the Imperial Valley is the defining characteristic of this mid-1950s survey, dominated by a dense grid of irrigation infrastructure. The Alamo River snakes through the center of the landscape, its natural curves contrasting sharply with the rigid lines of the Central Canal, Mesquite Canal, and dozens of numbered laterals like Acacia Lateral 10. This network supported the growth of Holtville and the research at the University of California Imperial Valley Field Station near Meloland.
