Agricultural expansion and mountainous terrain intersect on this late-1970s survey, where the floor of the San Joaquin Valley meets the high ridges of the Tehachapi Mountains. West of the peaks, intensive irrigation is evident around Di Giorgio, Weed Patch, and Arvin, illustrating the industrial scale of California's interior farming. In the north, the Sequoia National Forest covers the steep slopes of the Piute Mountains, while the Kern River flows through the northwest corner toward Bakersfield.
