1961 Map of Cholame Valley

USGS Topo · Published 1962

About this map

Cholame Valley is defined by a series of alluvial fans and distinct canyons along the border of Monterey, San Luis Obispo, and Kings Counties. Centered on the Cholame Ranch, the map reveals a landscape primarily dedicated to ranching and dry-land farming, with scattered grain fields and a remote airstrip serving the valley floor. The water security of this arid region is meticulously documented through numerous named sources such as Kerr Spring, Willow Spring, and Little Tiger Spring, alongside several wells and the seasonal flow of Cholame Creek.
