1968 Map of Paicines

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

The San Andreas Rift Zone dominates this geographic study of the California Coast Ranges, cutting a distinct northwest-southeast path through the Gabilan Range. The settlement of Paicines and the sprawling Paicines Ranch sit at the confluence of the San Benito River and Tres Pinos Creek, where the valley floor transitions into high, complex terrain. This 1968 survey reveals a landscape primarily dedicated to ranching and resource extraction, with a Gravel Pit and Limekiln marking local industrial activity. Local education is anchored by rural schoolhouses such as Willow Grove Sch and Cienega Sch, while the rugged southern heights are defined by McPhails Peak and a network of firebreaks and jeep trails. Transportation follows the natural contours of the rift, with Panoche Road and Cienega Road serving as the primary corridors through the Cienega Valley.
