1982 Map of Ninemile Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

Ninemile Canyon serves as a rugged conduit for hydraulic engineering in this 1980s-era study of the eastern Sierra Nevada slopes. The landscape is dominated by the complex infrastructure of the Los Angeles Second Aqueduct, which navigates the uneven terrain through a series of siphons, flumes, and the Los Angeles Aqueduct Tunnel. This massive water conveyance system highlights the era's reliance on remote desert and mountain resources to sustain coastal urban growth.
