1955 Map of Pacheco Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Bell Station and the Pacheco Ranger Sta serve as central landmarks in this mid-century survey of the Diablo Range. The landscape is defined by the convergence of the North Fork Pacheco Creek and the South Fork Pacheco Creek, which feed into the prominent Pacheco Lake. This area of eastern Santa Clara County is marked by established cattle operations such as Dowdy Ranch, O'Connor Ranch, and Shaeirn Ranch, reflecting a ranching economy that utilized the valleys between Mustang Ridge and Kaufman Ridge. Significant elevation changes are noted at peaks like Pacheco Pk and Burra Burra Peak, while distinctive formations such as Lovers Leap and Elephant Head punctuate the ridges. A network of trails and jeep tracks connects these high points to lower features like Turkey Flat.
