1968 Map of Mount Johnson

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

Gabilan Range dominates this landscape along the border of Monterey and San Benito Counties, where steep canyons and high peaks create a complex network of seasonal drainages. The 1968 field check captures a largely undeveloped ranching or conservation area, characterized by family-named terrain like Johnson Canyon, Ben Graves Canyon, and McCoy Creek. The Southern portion of the map transitions into the broader Gloria Valley, featuring Gloria Lake and the small settlement of Chalone. Significant elevation markers such as Mount Johnson and Mount Reynolds tower over isolated flats like Parks Valley and Williamson Valley. The presence of numerous Springs and a Water Tank in this arid environment highlights the importance of water management for the scattered homesteads and livestock reachable only by Shady Lane or remote jeep trails.
