About this map

The Kings River dominates this San Joaquin Valley landscape, its course managed by Empire Weir No 1 and Empire Weir No 2 as it flows toward the expansive Tulare Lake in the south. The 1943 survey captures an agricultural region defined by a rigid grid of avenues and massive water control projects, including the Empire Canal, Outside Waterway, and Blakeley Canal. These systems enabled the development of settlements like Stratford and the Rancheria Santa Rosa, which stand in contrast to the industrial infrastructure found to the southwest.
