1930 Map of La Cima

About this map

Kettleman North Dome Hills and the adjacent Kettleman Plain define this landscape during a period of intensive industrial development in Central California. The presence of the Discovery Well along Discovery Ridge underscores the region's importance to the era's energy economy, supported by the Standard Oil Camp and the Pacific Gas and Electric Plant. The terrain is deeply dissected by a network of drainage channels, including Arroyo Torcido, Arroyo Vago, and Arroyo Hondo, which carve through the uplifted ridges of La Ceja. Small company-associated settlements such as Milham City and Hydril appear alongside family or location-specific markers like Murray and the Sunset Sch. The map records a distinct nomenclature for local landforms, from the peak of Cerro Lodoso to the many named arroyos like Arroyo El Tolete and Arroyo La Palomera that drain toward the plains.
