1942 Map of Little Table Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1954

About this map

Little Table Mountain dominates the southeastern corner of this Central Valley landscape, marking a distinct transition from the flatlands into the foothills of Madera County. Published in 1954 from 1940s data, the map reveals a rural economy organized around family livestock operations and early regional transit routes. Ranching history is preserved through named properties such as Shannon Ranch, Urrutia Ranch, and the Wide Awake Ranch. These holdings are connected by historic thoroughfares like the Madera and Hildreth Road and the Yosemite and Fresno Road, which meet at Millers Corner. The presence of the Marysdale School near the southern boundary suggests a once-active rural school district serving the families of the foothill ranches, while watercourses like Cottonwood Creek and the North Fork of Little Dry Creek define the drainage patterns of this dry, sloping terrain.
