2015 Map of Sherman Peak

About this map

The Diablo Range defines this landscape in western Fresno County, where deep canyons and high peaks create a complex drainage network. Water is a central theme here, with numerous named springs such as Rock House Spring, Moonshine Spring, and Hollyhock Spring scattered across the ridges. These vital water sources historically supported ranching and transit through the dry interior mountains. The terrain is marked by prominent elevations including Sherman Peak, Kreyenhagen Peak, and Goat Mtn, which overlook landmarks like The Gorge and Devils Gate. The southern portion of the map highlights the area near Coalinga Mineral Springs, a location with deep ties to regional geological history. Key watercourses like Los Gatos Cr and Warthan Cr carve through the mountain passes, while Coalinga Rd provides the primary corridor through this section of the range.
