2018 Map of White River

About this map

White River sits at the foot of the western Sierra Nevada foothills, straddling the boundary where Tulare County and Kern County meet. This landscape is defined by its series of distinct peaks and gulches, creating a complex drainage network into the namesake White River. Tributaries such as Coho Cr and Chulaney Cr flow from higher elevations near King George Ridge and Rail Flat Ridge in the north toward the central valley floor. The map highlights numerous family-named and topographic landmarks, including Joe Bowen Canyon, Isham Hill, and Eclipse Hill, which offer valuable points of reference for local historians. This era of the territory is marked by a network of rural routes like White River Rd and Blue Mountain Rd that connect the small settlement of White River to the surrounding canyons and ridges.
