1955 Map of Mt. Sizer

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Henry Willard Coe State Park dominates the mountainous terrain east of the burgeoning Santa Clara Valley during the mid-20th century. This area is characterized by a network of steep canyons and ridges, including Mt Sizer and the prominent Middle Ridge, where cattle ranching traditions are evident at Los Huecos Ranch and Coe Ranch. The landscape reflects a period of transition as the Anderson Reservoir alters the flow of Coyote Creek, creating a significant water feature near the historic Cochrane Bridge. Researchers will find numerous remote outposts and springs, such as Madrone Soda Sprs and Oak Flat Ranch, which highlight the era's land use before widespread modern development. The eastern portion of the map remains largely roadless, defined by namesake flats like Poverty Flat and Sizer Flat connected by a series of primitive jeep trails.
