2015 Map of Alcalde Hills

About this map

Coalinga serves as the gateway to the rugged interior of the Alcalde Hills, where the western edge of the San Joaquin Valley meets a landscape of deep canyons and seasonal springs. The map documents a transition from the grid-like development of the valley floor, represented by the Central Valley and residential streets like S Karen Rd, to the complex topography of the range. The upland terrain is marked by distinct geographical pockets such as Dutch Oven Flat and Oak Flat, while numerous water sources like Indian Springs and Mustang Spring are scattered throughout the hills.
