Opis

San Benito Mountain and Joaquin Rocks are two very different places tied together by the same ridge. San Benito Mountain is the highest peak in California's Diablo Range. It is the crown atop a huge serpentine zone surrounded by public land in the historic New Idria Mining District. Joaquin Rocks, also on public land, are composed entirely of sandstone that form three monolithic pinnacles that crown an ancient sacred Native American landscape. This book provides important historical background about the various places-names in the regions and the activity that marked their place in time-in that sense this is a history book. This book also gives the reader detailed directions and location data, and information about sites and places to see, thus it is also visitors' guide. This book is invaluable for visitors to Joaquin Rocks as it tells the reader how to find their way to the many sites otherwise hidden away in this rugged terrain. The experienced visitor will find new details about places they have visited, but never understood. The new visitors will discover an entirely fresh adventure for exploration. This guide makes your journey through this landscape an enjoyable and rewarding experience.
