1966 Map of Winters Ridge

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

Winters Ridge and Middle Ridge dominate this mid-century landscape in the Tehachapi Mountains, where the land is defined by deep canyons and an intricate network of named water sources. The map captures a transitional territory between the Los Alamos Y Agua Caliente and La Liebre land grants, showing a rugged terrain largely accessible only via the Tejon Trail or various jeep trails. For the researcher, the map preserves the exact locations of numerous remote springs and canyons that were vital for cattle and early ranching, such as Cow Chip Spring, Urcado Springs, and Pastoria Spring. The lack of formal townsites highlights the area's isolation, punctuated only by occasional infrastructure like a isolated Radio Facility and scattered water tanks along the drainages of Tunis Creek and El Paso Creek.
