1958 Map of O'Donnell Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 1960

About this map

The Canelo Hills of Santa Cruz County dominate this mid-century topographic study, revealing a landscape defined by cattle ranching and early mining ventures within the Coronado National Forest. Small-scale settlement is concentrated around Canelo and the Canelo Ranger Station, with several legacy homesteads such as Canby Ranch, Everhart Ranch, and Wood Ranch scattered across the northern canyons. Education and community sites are documented at the Canille School and Black Oak Cemetery, while the southern reaches show the industrial footprint of the New York Mine, La Plata Mine, and Meadow Valley Mine. A complex network of water features, including Welch Spring, Rattlesnake Dam, and numerous livestock tanks like Pinto Tank and Post Well, underscores the vital importance of water management for the ranches situated along O'Donnell Canyon and Vaughn Canyon during the 1950s.
