1955 Map of Monocline Ridge

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Monocline Ridge dominates this 1955 survey area, defining a stark landscape where the arid slopes of the Tumey Hills meet the intensive agricultural engineering of the Central Valley. The map captures a critical period of infrastructure development, featuring the California Aqueduct and the Chaney Pumping Station, markers of the massive state water projects of the mid-20th century. High elevations like Ciervo Hill transition into the valley floor, where a rigid grid of roads including South Avenue and Manning Avenue organizes the terrain.
