1965 Map of Knob Hill

About this map

The Mt Poso Oil Field and the Round Mtn Oil Field dominate this mid-1960s landscape in Kern County, illustrating the industrial footprint of petroleum extraction in the foothills. Extensive networks of pipelines and Pipeline Road traverse the terrain, which is deeply incised by drainage systems like Granite Canyon and Borel Canyon. A notable human landmark is the Halfway House located along a central north-south road, likely serving as a rest point or waypoint between the busy oil fields.
