1992 Map of Monolith

USGS Topo · Published 1995

About this map

Tehachapi Valley provides a high-altitude backdrop for industrial and transport infrastructure in this 1990s survey. The landscape is defined by the heavy footprint of mineral extraction and utility networks, most notably the numerous Mine and Prospect sites scattered through the foothills. The town of Monolith sits at the edge of the ephemeral Proctor Lake, while the settlement of Cameron marks a strategic point along the Tehachapi Pass. Water management is a primary theme here, captured in the route of the Los Angeles Aqueduct and several Water Tanks. The map also illustrates the modern energy landscape of Kern County, with multiple Generators and Substation facilities appearing alongside traditional natural landmarks like Pajuela Peak and the seasonal flows of Sand Canyon Creek.
