1946 Map of Lanes Bridge

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

The San Joaquin River winds along the boundary between Madera and Fresno Counties, defining a landscape of braided channels and riparian islands. In this immediate post-war revision, the river's path is marked by features like Cobbs Island, Island No. 1, and Island No. 2, illustrating the shifting alluvial nature of the valley floor before extensive flood control. To the north, the terrain rises toward Little Table Mountain, while the plains are dissected by Little Dry Creek and Root Creek. Rural life is centered around local institutions such as Webster Sch and Fort Washington Sch, while the Fort Washington Golf Club indicates early recreational development near the river. Numerous Windmills dot the map, highlighting the reliance on groundwater for the region's agricultural homesteads.
