1949 Map of Hames Valley

USGS Topo · Published 1953

About this map

Hames Valley is centered in this 1947–1949 topographic survey, documenting a rural Monterey County landscape defined by cattle ranching and early transportation infrastructure. The Salinas River cuts through the northeast corner, shadowed by the Southern Pacific railroad and the historic alignment of Highway 101. Scattered windmills, such as those near Los Lobos Spr, indicate the vital role of groundwater management for the local ranching economy.
