1991 Map of Mindego Hill

USGS Topo · Published 1995

About this map

Portola Valley and the surrounding crests of the Santa Cruz Mountains define this landscape during the early 1990s. The map illustrates a complex intersection of suburban expansion and massive conservation efforts, where developed areas like Los Altos Hills and Los Trancos Woods give way to an extensive network of protected lands, including Portola State Park and the Heritage Grove Redwood Preserve. The geological significance of the area is prominently marked by the San Andreas Rift Zone, which cuts northwest across the terrain, influencing the drainage patterns of Los Trancos Creek and Stevens Creek. Institutional landmarks such as Foothill College and the San Francisco Log Cabin Ranch appear alongside legacy land grants like La Purisima Concepcion, bridging the gap between Spanish-era ranchos and modern residential developments.
