1950 Map of Mouth of Kern

USGS Topo · Published 1962

About this map

Industrial energy production and water management dominate this landscape of the San Joaquin Valley. The southern half of the sheet is largely occupied by the Buena Vista Lake Bed, marked by an extensive system of levees, irrigation ditches, and a canal network featuring an inlet and outlet. Tracing the Approximate Old Shoreline reveals the historical extent of the water before land reclamation transformed the basin.
