2018 Map of Tejon Hills

About this map

The Tehachapi Mountains rise sharply above the southern San Joaquin Valley floor, creating a stark transition between the alluvial plains and the dissected highlands of the Tejon Hills. This 2018 survey reveals a landscape defined by seasonal watercourses like Tejon Cr and Comanche Cr, which have carved deep drainage patterns through the foothills below Comanche Point. The mapping of local infrastructure such as Feedlot Ln and the 850 Canal illustrates the specialized agricultural and ranching operations that utilize this geography where the mountains meet the flatlands. To the southeast, the terrain becomes increasingly complex, marked by the sharp descents of Cat Canyon and Devils Canyon. This map serves as a precise record of late 2010s land use, capturing the layout of rural access routes like Rancho Rd and Sebastian Rd alongside natural landmarks like Bino Springs.
