1965 Map of Little Buttes

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

Antelope Acres sits at the southern edge of this mid-1960s survey, marking a pocket of residential development in the high desert of the Antelope Valley. The landscape is defined by the sharp transition between the volcanic outcrops of Little Buttes and the sprawling grid of the California High Desert. This area, straddling the Kern Co Los Angeles Co line, is meticulously charted with an emphasis on water infrastructure, evidenced by the numerous wells and water tanks required to sustain life and agriculture in this arid environment. Key local landmarks include the Rogers School and a Radio Facility, providing glimpses into the civic and technological infrastructure of the mid-century era. The map traces the rigid geometry of the valley floor, where thoroughfares like Rosamond Blvd and Gaskell Street cut across the alluvial plains toward the distant Antelope Buttes.
