1966 Map of Tehachapi North

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

The Tehachapi Valley serves as a critical junction for infrastructure and agriculture in the mid-1960s, defined by the major rail corridor of the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe Southern Pacific. This survey captures the core of Tehachapi, where local education and community life center on St Malachys Sch, Wells Sch, and the High Sch. To the west, the label for Old Town and a nearby Historical Monument mark the area's earlier roots near Tom Sawyer Lake. The landscape transitions from the developed valley floor, home to the Tehachapi-Kern County Airport No 4, into the steep drainages of Hog Canyon and Tailgate Canyon. Resource extraction is evident in the numerous Quarries dotting the eastern slopes, while the Tailgate Lookout Tower stands watch over the rugged northern high ground.
