Laguna Seca Ranch

Laguna Seca Ranch (from the Spanish: Dry lake) is a historic agricultural property in western Monterey County, California, United States.

Geography and drainage

On the property a prominent ridge of terrain exists that extends in an east-northeasterly direction to eventually reach Fort Ord.[1] On the south side of this ridge, drainage and groundwater flow is to the south. Surface water flows into the Carmel River, which parallels State Route 68. A series of surface drainage ditches and gullies run south from the higher terrain of Fort Ord to join this flow. Berwick and Canada de la Ordena Canyons also exist on the south and southeast portions of the Laguna Seca Ranch. Berwick Canyon almost borders the eastern side, a quarter mile away (400 m), while Buckeye Canyon parallels the eastern border less than a tenth of a mile (150 m) off the ranch to the east.
