1945 Map of Millerton Lake

About this map

Millerton Lake and the San Joaquin River anchor this mid-1940s survey of the California foothills, capturing the landscape just as the Friant Dam Gaging Sta and the new reservoir altered the hydrology of Madera and Fresno Counties. The map reveals a land of family ranching and early industry, featuring scattered holdings such as Lewis Ranch, Ladd Ranch, and the Bigelow Ranch. Mining remnants are still prominent, with the Carnation Mine, Quartz Mine, and Fresno Banner Mine dotting the drainages of Fine Gold Creek.
