About this map

The Guadalupe River and its headwaters define this 1916 landscape, where the historic mining community of New Almaden sits at the foot of the Los Capitancillos range. This era shows the region in a state of transition, featuring both the established New Almaden Sta on the Southern Pacific Railroad and a nearby label for an (Abandoned Town). The complex topography rises sharply toward Loma Prieta Mtn, marked by a network of rural schoolhouses like Pioneer School and Summit School that served isolated mountain communities.
