Morgan Hill anchor the southwestern corner of this survey, where the residential development of the Santa Clara Valley meets the rising elevations of the Diablo Range. The landscape is defined by the canyon system of Coyote Creek, which feeds into the prominent Anderson Lake. Higher in the ridges, the terrain transitions to a series of flats and springs that suggest a history of high-country ranching and seasonal resort use. Notable among these is Madrone Soda Springs tucked into Sycamore Canyon, a location historically known for its mineral waters. The complex topography is marked by named features such as Mount Sizer and the steep Hogsback, with accessibility provided by Manzanita Point Road and the early infrastructure of the Cochrane Bridge.
