About this map

Woodward Reservoir dominates the northwest corner of this landscape, its shoreline defined by distinct features like Biscuit Point, T Island, and Whale Island. This 2012 map illustrates the intricate water management system essential to the Central Valley, featuring an extensive network of canals and laterals including the San Joaquin Main Canal, the Oakdale North Main Canal, and the Oakdale South Main Canal. This infrastructure supports agricultural operations such as the Hoekstra Dairy and U-3 Ranch.

The Stanislaus River carves through the central portion of the map, crossed by the Orange Blossom Bridge and the Oakdale Bridge. Just south of the river, the city's growth is anchored by landmarks like the Citizens Cem and the Oakdale Airport. Further industrial and irrigation engineering is visible at the Clavey Siphon, which helps coordinate the flow of the Clavey Lateral across the terrain near the small settlement of Adela.
