2021 Map of San Benito Mountain

About this map

The high peaks of the Diablo Range define this high-altitude landscape where the borders of San Benito, Fresno, and Monterey counties converge. Dominated by San Benito Mtn and Alta Peak, the terrain is etched by deep drainage systems like Nimrod Canyon and Rudolf Canyon, which feed into the upper reaches of the San Benito River. The map reveals a complex network of seasonal water sources and isolated springs, including Fitzpatrick Spring, Fawn Spring, and Sylvester Spring, which were essential landmarks in this arid, high-country environment.
