About this map

Ortigalita Peak dominates the southern landscape of this 1956 survey, marking the transition from the rugged Panoche Hills to the industrial agricultural expanse of the San Joaquin Valley. The map documents a critical era of water engineering in Merced County, showing the Delta-Mendota Canal and Main Canal cutting through the valley floor. These irrigation projects supported large operations like Hamburg Farms and the Woo Ranch, as well as local infrastructure including a Cotton Gin and a nearby Landing Strip.
