About this map

Henry W Willard Coe Memorial Park dominates the southwestern portion of this mid-1950s survey, marking a period when this section of the Diablo Range remained largely undeveloped and defined by steep ridgelines. The landscape is a network of deep drainages including East Fork Coyote Creek and the North Fork Pacheco Creek, which carve through prominent elevations like Bear Mtn. The map captures several high-elevation flats and points, such as Paradise Flat, Poverty Flat, and Manzanita Point, providing a record of the area's geography before extensive trail development. Further north, the survey tracks the rugged boundary between Stanislaus and Santa Clara Counties near VABM 2604 Diablo, while isolated water sources like Hoover Lake and Bear Springs represent critical landmarks for cattle ranching or early recreational use in this isolated interior terrain.
