1948 Map of Stockdale Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

Cholame Hills define this interior Monterey County landscape, where deep drainages like Portuguese Canyon and Vineyard Canyon cut through the high terrain. The topography is dominated by Stockdale Mountain in the north and the restrictive passage of The Narrows along the Middle Fork. This 1948 field-checked survey by the Army Map Service reveals a sparsely populated ranching territory characterized by its water-security infrastructure, including several Windmill sites located along the valley floors. Genealogists and local historians will find the Imusdale Cem in the eastern hills, a solitary marker of the era's small upland communities. The map captures the complex drainage systems of Little Cholame Creek and Middle Fork Cholame Creek before significant modern development altered the land use of these remote California canyons.
