1948 Map of Paso Robles

USGS Topo · Published 1962

About this map

Paso Robles and the surrounding agricultural heart of San Luis Obispo County are captured here just after the post-war shift in regional aviation and infrastructure. The Salinas River valley serves as the primary corridor for the Southern Pacific railroad and U S Highway 101, connecting a string of rural hubs including San Miguel, Templeton, and Atascadero. The landscape is a mix of alluvial terraces like San Lawrence Terrace and canyon-cut hillsides, where numerous windmills signify a deep reliance on groundwater for the local ranching and farming economy.
