1943 Map of Hernandez Valley

USGS Topo · Published 1948

About this map

Bitterwater Valley and the surrounding coastal ranges of San Benito County and Monterey County reveal a landscape defined by isolated ranching outposts and rugged canyons. The area is characterized by family-held land such as the Lew Smith Ranch and De Alvarez Ranch, while local education is anchored by the Bitterwater Tully Sch and Hernandez Sch. This 1941 survey captures the region just before mid-century modernization, where industry is limited to the Fire Flex Mine and an Oil Pumping Sta near the southern boundary.
