1953 Map of San Luis Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1954

About this map

San Luis Gonzaga terrain defines this California landscape, where the rising hills meet the agricultural infrastructure of the mid-twentieth century. The 1950s water network is prominently featured, including the industrial scale of the Delta-Mendota Canal and the Outside Canal, complete with a Pumping Station and Siphon. Established ranching operations like Romero Ranch and San Luis Ranch are positioned along the drainage of Romero Creek and San Luis Creek. Transportation through the foothills is anchored by Pacheco Pass Road, while secondary routes like Mc Cabe Road and Jasper Sears Road provide access to the various springs and reservoirs scattered across the higher elevations. The area around Basalt Hill and its Lookout suggests a landscape managed for both cattle and early water conveyance before the large-scale changes of later decades.
