1948 Map of Valleton

USGS Topo · Published 1952

About this map

Indian Valley serves as the central artery of this topographic study, where the seasonal flows of Big Sandy Creek and Sandy Creek cut through a complex system of drainage basins. The settlement of Valleton is situated along these creek beds, showing the historic footprint of ranching and agriculture in Monterey County shortly after World War II. The southern portion of the map is dominated by the Camp Roberts Military Reservation, highlighting the significant presence of the Department of the Army in this region. The landscape is characterized by a series of steep, named canyons such as Walker Canyon, Deer Canyon, and Portuguese Canyon, which illustrate the natural barriers that shaped local transport and property boundaries. Benchmarks like BM 1232 and BM 1001 provide precise elevation data for surveyors and historians tracing the physical evolution of the Cañada Montuosa and surrounding ridges.
