1953 Map of Altamont

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

The Altamont Pass serves as the focal point of this mid-century survey, where the Southern Pacific and Western Pacific railroads converge to cross the eastern edge of the Livermore Valley. The landscape is defined by the sharp transition from the valley floor to the ridgelines of Crane Ridge, with watercourses like Arroyo Seco and Arroyo Mocho carving through the hills. This era reveals a mix of early agricultural development and infrastructure, including a winery, several windmills, and an Abandoned Airfield situated east of the Livermore boundary.
