1936 Map of White River

USGS Topo · Published 1947

About this map

The Tule River Indian Reservation anchors the northeastern highlands of this Tulare County landscape, where the terrain shifts from the flat San Joaquin Valley floor into the rising Sierra Nevada foothills. Surveyed between 1926 and 1932, the map documents a transition from agricultural settlements like Deer Creek Colony and Ultra in the west to the more isolated mining and ranching outposts of the interior. The historic community of White River sits at the confluence of several drainages, serving as a focal point near the La Grange Mine and Bald Mtn. Local infrastructure is defined by early schools such as Grandview Sch and Quincy Sch, alongside a prominent Transmission Line that cuts across Huey Valley and Tennessee Ridge. The presence of Telegraph Flat and Fountain Springs suggests the importance of water and communication routes in this rural landscape before mid-century development.
