2021 Map of Orange Cove North

About this map

Orange Cove sits at the junction of the Sierra Nevada foothills and the fertile floor of the San Joaquin Valley, a landscape defined by industrial-scale irrigation and fruit production. The massive Friant-Kern Canal cuts across the terrain, representing the engineering backbone of this agricultural hub, alongside the Alta East Branch Canal and Miller Ditch. To the north and east, the elevation rises sharply toward the foothills, marked by landmarks such as Bear Mtn and Granite Hill. Small pockets of settlement like Citrus Cove and Hills Valley are scattered throughout the lowlands, while the northeastern corner reveals the entry into Squaw Valley. This map documents a modern layout of the region's complex water delivery systems and its grid of local agricultural roads, reflecting the continued importance of water management in the Central Valley.
