1915 Map of Priest Valley

USGS Topo · Published 1927

About this map

New Idria and the surrounding Diablo Range foothills anchor this 1915 study of the rugged borderlands where San Benito, Monterey, and Fresno counties meet. The landscape is defined by an intensive mining economy, prominently featuring the Alpine Mine, Picacho Mine, and Gem Mine near San Benito Mtn, alongside the Monterey Coal Mine to the northwest. These industrial outposts are balanced by a network of one-room schoolhouses serving remote ranching communities, including Columbus School, Bitterwater School, and Tully School.
