1992 Map of Mettler
USGS Topo · Published 1995About this map
Mettler and the surrounding agricultural lands of southern Kern County appear here as they were updated in the early 1990s. The landscape is defined by the rigid grid of irrigation and transport, featuring the Governor Brown California Aqueduct and a large Oil Field tucked against the northern slopes of Wheeler Ridge. This intersection of water infrastructure and petroleum extraction highlights the region's industrial foundations. Local landmarks such as the Pumping Station and various Gravel Pits dot the terrain, while settlements like Meridian and Wheeler Ridge serve as small hubs along major thoroughfares like the Maricopa Highway. The drainage of Tecuya Creek cuts through the surveyed sections, illustrating the natural watercourses that persist alongside man-made canals and pipelines in this intensive production landscape.
