1961 Map of Orchard Peak

About this map

The San Andreas Rift Zone dominates the structural character of this landscape at the boundary of San Luis Obispo and Kern Counties. This active tectonic corridor is marked by a series of sag ponds and ephemeral catchments including Twisselmann Lake, Still Lake, O'Brien Lake, and Long Lake. The settlement of Annette serves as a small hub in the southeastern quadrant, connected by a network of steep transportation routes like the Antelope Grade Road and Ortega Grade Road. These paths reflect the topographic challenges of the Temblor Range, where high points like Orchard Peak rise above deep incisions such as King Canyon and Jack Canyon. Infrastructure for water and energy is evident through the Antelope Pumping Sta and a prominent pipeline that traverses the northern reaches of Antelope Valley, illustrating the intersection of geological hazards and industrial utility.
