ABSTRACT: California Illustrated No. 1. Vaca Valley is the largest of the valleys composing the Vaca district, being nine miles long, and from two to three miles wide. Its western boundary is formed by the high Coast Range, which gives complete protection from the ocean winds. On the three other sides it is encircled by a line of high bluffs or hills. The direction of the valley is north and south and parallel to the Sacramento valley. The slopes of the hills on each side of the valley present arable land of variable width, but averaging about a mile, The average width of the arable lands, valley and foot-hil is four miles, which gives an area of 36 square miles of land in this valley alone. Areas and people covered include: Gates Canyon, Wolfskill, Buck, Pleasants Valley, Miller Canyon. Author(s): Wickson, Edward J Year Published: 1888 No. Pages: 204 |
