1943 Map of Cholame Ranch
USGS Topo · Published 1955About this map
The Part of Cholame Rancho land grant area defines this section of the Central Coast ranges, where the drainage of Cholame Valley meets the high ridges of the Diablo Range. Mapping from 1943 aerial photographs shows a landscape shaped by large-scale ranching and the proximity of the San Andreas Fault, which runs parallel to Parkfield Road. The map records numerous family-held operations such as Jack Ranch, Koster Ranch, and Hancock Ranch, reflecting the rural livestock economy that has long characterized the border between Monterey and San Luis Obispo counties.
