1956 Map of Soberanes Point

About this map

Carmel Highlands and the central coast of Monterey County are captured here in the mid-1950s, a period when the dramatic coastline remained largely defined by traditional landholdings and isolated landing sites. The map documents Notleys Landing and the Palo Colorado School tucked near the base of Palo Colorado Canyon, offering a look at the rural educational and maritime infrastructure of the era. The terrain is marked by steep canyons such as Garrapata Creek and Malpaso Creek, which cut through the San Jose Y Sur Chiquito land grant area.
