USGS Topo · Published 1948About this map
Spreckels serves as the industrial anchor for this 1947 landscape, dominated by the sugar beet industry and the nearby Salinas River. The town's grid is clearly defined alongside settling ponds and a pumping station, illustrating the heavy infrastructure required for large-scale agricultural processing. To the west, the extensive Fort Ord Military Reservation covers a significant portion of the terrain, marked by a network of ridges such as Pilarcitos Ridge and tactical landmarks like Jacks Ranger Station.
