2012 Map of Llanada

About this map

Llanada and the surrounding rangeland of the Diablo Range are defined by a network of seasonal watercourses and prominent ridges. The northern reaches follow the path of Panoche Cr, where Cherry Hill Cem sits near the junction of Yturriarte Rd and Panoche Rd. The terrain is marked by significant elevations like Walker Peak and Cerro Bonito, giving way to a system of deep drainages including Bitterwater Canyon and Mine Canyon. To the south, the Strohn Rancho area is characterized by the winding course of Pimental Cr as it flows through Log Cabin Canyon and Van Cliff Canyon. Several isolated water sources, such as Albañez Spring and Parrot Spring, suggest the critical importance of water management in this semi-arid landscape. This topography reflects a long history of ranching and early mining activity in a remote corner of San Benito County.
