About this map

The Los Banos State Recreation Area dominates the northern reaches of this Merced County landscape, defined by the significant hydraulic infrastructure of the late 1960s. The Los Banos Reservoir is held by the Los Banos Detention Dam, reflecting a period of intense water management in the Central Valley that includes the prominent California Aqueduct cutting across the northeast corner. This transition from managed water to the arid uplands is marked by numerous seasonal drainages like Los Banos Creek and Ortigalita Creek.
