1973 Map of Goat Canyon

About this map

Sanchez Cem and La Moreda Cem are prominent markers of family heritage in this section of Union County, mapped during the early 1970s. The landscape is defined by a series of deep drainage systems, most notably Goat Canyon and Chavez Canyon, which channel water toward the larger creek networks. The importance of water management in this arid region is evident through the naming of specific livestock and residential water sources such as Morrow Windmill, Antelope Well, and Middle Well. While the settlement of Daves sits near the eastern edge, much of the area is traversed by a Jeep Trail, reflecting a rugged environment where transportation remained tied to natural topography. These features, along with Jarosito Canyon and Leal Canyon, illustrate the dispersed settlement patterns and the essential reliance on seasonal water like Pinabetes Creek.
