2015 Map of Shandon

About this map

Shandon and Whitley Gardens anchor this 2015 survey of the northern Central Coast interior, where the confluence of the Estrella River, San Juan Cr, and Indian Cr shapes the regional geography. The landscape is defined by a dense network of drainage systems including McMillan Canyon and Shimmin Canyon, which cut through the high ground of the Eagle Hills and Murphy Hill. Genealogists and local historians can find many named water sources like Morgenson Springs and West Tuley Springs, often associated with the early ranching operations that utilized the broad plains of Shandon Flat and Gruenhagen Flat. Significant local infrastructure is noted by roads such as Rancho Shedd Way and McMillan Canyon Rd, while Clark Memorial Park serves as a central community landmark in the town of Shandon.
