2012 Map of Turlock Lake

About this map

Turlock Lake dominates the northern landscape of this Stanislaus County region, its irregular shoreline creating a complex hydraulic footprint just west of Three Tree Flat. The surrounding terrain is defined by a dendritic network of seasonal drainages including Peaslee Cr and the extensive reaches of Dry Cr, which meanders southward toward the Ingalsbe Slough. This 2012 survey illustrates the agrarian character of the Central Valley, where large-scale operations like the Sierra Vista Dairy are serviced by a grid of named rural routes. Local transport history is etched into the landscape via thoroughfares such as Cox Ferry Rd and Los Cerritos Rd, which connect the scattered agricultural holdings and water resources that drive the local economy.
