2012 Map of Alcalde Hills

About this map

The western edges of Coalinga meet the eastern slopes of the Alcalde Hills in this detailed survey of the California landscape. The area is defined by a dense network of canyons and springs that have long dictated movement through this arid terrain. Notable features include Coalmine Canyon and Parsons Canyon, which cut through the ridges toward the valley floor. Historically significant sites such as Sprague Cabin and Oak Flat are documented alongside established landmarks like Dodge Hill. The map traces the winding course of Los Gatos Cr as it flows from the highlands near Dutch Oven Flat, following the natural drainage patterns that shaped the development of Fresno County's western reaches. This 2012 snapshot provides a precise view of the interface between the urban grid of the Central Valley and the varied topography of the Diablo Range foothills.
