1949 Map of Espinosa Canyon

About this map

The Salinas River carves through this Monterey County landscape, serving as a vital artery through the agricultural and ranching lands of San Benito and San Lucas. This 1949 survey illustrates the rugged system of drainages that feed the river valley, including the prominent Espinosa Canyon and Broadhurst Canyon. The map reveals a working landscape dotted with numerous Windmills, which were essential for sustaining livestock and human habitation in the arid terrain between Robinson Canyon and the San Bernardo (Soberanes) land grant area.
