description:
Oiltown USA -- Taft was incorporated in 1944. West Kern OHV Haven: ATV's & motorcycles like the high desert hills surrounding Maricopa & Taft w/ miles of dirt trails. Ballinger Canyon, not too far away. They even have a Taft Grand Prix. Hollywood film crews like to shoot on location, w/ tree-lined downtown streets, old brick buildings & no crowds. Town is not the destination; it's all the wildflowers, plus outdoor recreation around here that is the draw. Or maybe it's the prison.
