About this map

Lost Hills sits at the northern edge of this Kern County survey, positioned along the vital transit corridor of the Bakersfield Paso Robles Road. The landscape is dominated by the prominent elevation of the Lost Hills, which rise above the surrounding valley floor and separate the settlement from the low-lying basin to the east. The Lost Hills Sch serves as a central community landmark for the local population during this era of mid-century development. To the east, the agricultural and hydraulic character of the San Joaquin Valley is evident where the West Side Canal skirts the edge of the Goose Lake basin. The map illustrates a transition from the elevated, surveyed sections of the hills to the managed water systems that supported the region's expanding land use in the early 1950s.
