1950 Map of Reward

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

Reward and McKittrick sit at the intersection of the desert floor and the rising Temblor Range, serving as centers for a landscape dominated by petroleum extraction. The presence of major energy interests including Standard Oil, Tidewater Associated Oil, and Union Oil reveals the industrial character of western Kern County during the mid-20th century. A dense network of Pipe Lines, oil sumps, and tanks stretches across the McKittrick Valley, while smaller settlements like the Olig School supported the local workforce.
