About this map

The Southern Pacific RR terminates at Raymond in this 1940s study of the Madera County foothills, highlighting a landscape defined by ranching and resource extraction. The area around Knowles and the Madera Granite Quarry reflects the local industry that once fueled construction across the state. In the southern half of the quadrangle, the Fresno River and Cottonwood Creek wind through a territory dotted with family-held holdings such as Adobe Ranch and Shannon Ranch. The presence of the San Joaquin Experimental Range and the Daulton Copper Mine suggests a transition from traditional grazing to more specialized land use. Historical waypoints like Bates Station and Sixmile House offer insights into early transit patterns along Madera Road before the modernization of the California highway system.
