1934 Map of Los Viejos Hills

USGS Topo · Published 1943

About this map

Kettleman Hills topography dominates this 1930s survey of the Central Valley edge, revealing a landscape defined by seasonal drainages and prominent ridges before intensive industrial development. The terrain is marked by a complex series of Spanish-named features such as La Llanura, La Bajada, and La Safida, indicating the historical cultural influence on local geographic naming. Hanford Road serves as the primary corridor through this arid country, winding past Mustang Hill and Bullwheel Ridge. The presence of the Middle Dome and various arroyos like Arroyo Culebrino illustrates the natural drainage patterns of the La Caballette region. This map is particularly useful for those studying the physical evolution of Kings County or tracing early 20th-century transportation routes through Pepper Grass Valley.
