1948 Map of Adelaida

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

The Camp Roberts Military Reservation occupies a significant portion of this northern San Luis Obispo County landscape, reflecting the military's influence on regional land use during the mid-20th century. Outside the reservation, the area maintains a rural ranching character, centered around the community of Adelaida. Local infrastructure is sparse but well-defined, with family-named landmarks like White Ranch and Chimney Rock Ranch marking the drainages of San Marcos Creek and Las Tablas Creek. Education and community memory are anchored by the Lincoln Sch and the Adelaida Cem, providing vital points of reference for genealogists. The terrain is deeply dissected, with the prominent Chimney Rock rising near the confluence of several seasonal waterways. Revisions from the late 1970s show the addition of a modern landing strip, indicating the gradual modernization of these established ranching territories.
