1953 Map of Howard Ranch

USGS Topo · Published 1954

About this map

The Delta-Mendota Canal carves a striking industrial line through this Central Valley landscape, separating the irrigated agricultural flats from the rising western hills. This mid-century survey captures a transition in water management, where numerous windmills and a Siphon support the traditional ranching operations of the Howard Ranch. Evidence of the region's early rural infrastructure is found at Cottonwood School and Romero School, while a series of named watercourses including Quinto Creek, Mustang Creek, and Garzas Creek drain the higher elevations toward the valley floor.
