About this map

Stallion Springs and the expansive Tejon Ranch grounds anchor this map at the transition between the San Joaquin Valley floor and the southern Sierra Nevada rise. The terrain is defined by the sharp ascent of the Tehachapi Mountains, where deep drainages like Tejon Canyon and Cedar Canyon carve through the high country. In Cummings Valley, a developed street network around Stallion Springs contrasts with the surrounding agricultural and ranching lands, featuring thoroughfares named for racing heritage such as Secretariat Rd and Bold Venture Dr.

Further south, the landscape opens into Joaquin Flat and the rugged Tejon Hills, revealing a complex system of water sources including Havala Spring and Rosemary Spring. The placement of Horsethief Mtn and Horsethief Flat hints at the region's long history as a mountain crossing, while canyons like White Cow Canyon and Winters Canyon illustrate the intricate topography that has shaped land use in this part of Kern County for generations.
