1958 Map of Ritter Ridge

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

The San Andreas Rift Zone creates a striking diagonal alignment across this landscape, defining the corridor where Leona Valley and Anaverde Valley meet. This tectonic feature organizes the local geography, with Ritter Ridge and Portal Ridge rising to the north while the substantial mass of the Sierra Pelona dominates the southern half of the sheet. The settlement of Palmdale is visible on the eastern edge, supported by the Southern Pacific railroad and the waters of Lake Palmdale.
