Summary

Description
English: This is one of the better looking natural tar seeps at the McKittrick Oil Field, in California.
  • Sometimes the surface is hard, but in hot weather, it is soft. People like to light the gas bubbles that come out of the seep.
  • The seeps are visible on Google maps as dark areas south of the intersection of Highway 33 and Highway 58, in the western San Joaquin Valley.
