1929 Map of West Alpaugh

USGS Topo · Published 1929

About this map

Tulare Lake Water Company Canal and Homeland Canal dominate this 1920s landscape, illustrating the intensive engineering required to manage water in the southern San Joaquin Valley. The map captures the geometric precision of the Central Valley's irrigation grid along the Kings Co Tulare Co boundary. The settlement of West Alpaugh and the nearby Hacienda Ranch anchor the southern portion of the sheet, while the Shore R R skirts the edge of Kings Lake in the northwest. This topography reflects a transitional period of agricultural development before modern industrial farming fully reshaped the region's hydrology, preserving the early infrastructure of the local water companies and the rail connections that linked these remote outposts to California's markets.
