1968 Map of Turlock Lake

About this map

Turlock Lake dominates the northern landscape of this Central Valley survey, its shoreline defining the borders of Turlock Lake State Park along the Tuolumne River watershed. The map illustrates a complex network of water management infrastructure essential to the region's agricultural development, including the Main Turlock Canal and the North Side Canal. The terrain transitions from the reservoir's regulated waters to the distinctive topography of Los Cerritos and the low-lying drainage of Dry Creek and Ingalsbe Slough to the south.
