1969 Map of Sherman Peak

About this map

Sherman Peak rises as a central landmark in this 1969 topographic survey, which documents the remote and varied terrain of western Fresno County near the border of Monterey County. The landscape is defined by the sharp elevations of Juniper Ridge and Bald Mountain, intersected by a network of drainage systems including Los Gatos Creek and Warthan Creek. Human presence is sparsely marked but significant, centered on locations like Coalinga Mineral Springs and the nearby Cem (cemetery), indicating long-standing local landmarks in the foothills.
