1947 Map of Rosamond Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

Rosamond Lake dominates this 1947 aerial-compiled survey, appearing as a massive dry expanse in the high Mojave Desert. The landscape is defined by the rigid geometry of early desert planning, where a grid of lettered thoroughfares like Avenue C and Avenue E cut across the arid terrain. These surveyed lines represent the systematic subdivision of the Antelope Valley during a period of transition, as military-directed mapping by the U.S. Army Air Forces and the Aeronautical Chart Service provided precise data for this strategic corner of Los Angeles County.
