1953 Map of Turlock Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

Turlock Lake dominates the northern landscape of this Central Valley region, its irregular shoreline bounded by the Turlock Lake State Park. Published in the mid-1950s under the administration of Governor Goodwin J. Knight, the map reveals a highly managed hydraulic landscape defined by the Main Canal and its associated irrigation network. These water systems parallel natural features like Dry Creek and Turlock Creek, facilitating the agricultural development of the surrounding plains.
