1956 Map of Palo Escrito Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

Sierra Salinas rises sharply above the agricultural valley floor, anchored by the prominent Palo Escrito Peak and Paloma Mtn. This mid-century landscape is defined by the expansive historic land grants of Paraje De Sanchez and San Vicente (Munrass), where the Salinas River carves a path through the alluvial plain. The Southern Pacific railroad corridor serves as the primary industrial axis, connecting small settlements like Molus and Camphora with larger facilities such as the Soledad State Prison and the Gonzales Fire Sta.
