1968 Map of Bickmore Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

The San Andreas Rift Zone dominates this 1968 landscape, tracing a distinct line through the topography between the Gabilan Range and the San Benito River. This tectonic boundary shapes the local environment, where ranching outposts like Melendy Ranch and Butts Ranch sit near the river's edge. To the south, the northern portion of Pinnacles National Monument is defined by the sharp drainage of Chalone Creek and the notable Balconies formation. The map records several localized markers of human activity and heritage, including the Willow Creek Cem and a Prospect located near the headwaters of Willow Creek. This era shows a network of unpaved movement, with numerous Jeep Trails and the historic La Gloria Road winding through Bickmore Canyon to connect remote family holdings such as the Schmidt Ranch.
