1937 Map of The Dark Hole

About this map

The Dark Hole defines the center of this 1934 survey, a distinctive topographic depression hemmed in by the heights of Black Mountain and Reef Ridge. This high-desert landscape, where the borders of Fresno, Monterey, and Kings counties meet, is marked by a network of isolated homesteads and seasonal camps. Family names are etched into the terrain at Shields Cabin, Moore Cabin, and Riley Cabin, indicating a history of ranching or prospecting in the remote canyons of the Kreyenhagen Hills.
