1968 Map of San Benito

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

The San Andreas Rift Zone dominates the southwestern corner of this 1968 landscape, tracing a distinct geological path alongside the San Benito River. This area of San Benito County is defined by a network of steep canyons and ridges, including Pine Ridge and the Call Mountains. Local ranching life is anchored by sites like Wilkinson Ranch and the small settlement of San Benito, where the Jefferson Sch served the rural community. Higher elevations are marked by the Lookout Tower on Chermise Ridge and the summit of Big Mountain. The map illustrates a remote, high-country terrain where travel is largely restricted to a complex system of Trail and Jeep Trail routes through features like Horsethief Canyon and Smoker Canyon.
