San Joaquin Valley agriculture meets the foothills of the San Emigdio Mountains in this modern survey of the southern Central Valley. The landscape is defined by the massive infrastructure of the Governor Edmund G Brown California Aqueduct, which skirts the base of the Wheeler Ridge uplift. The settlement of Mettler serves as a central hub for the surrounding grid of local farm roads like Valpredo Rd and Mettler Frontage Rd E. Natural drainages such as Tecuya Cr and Grapevine Cr descend from the high ground into the valley floor, where they intersect man-made water systems including the 850 Canal. The presence of the Meridian marker and various township lines illustrates the continuing importance of the Public Land Survey System in organizing this productive agricultural landscape.
