June Carey - Pacheco Pass

      
“I used to get in trouble for trespassing here,” says artist June Carey, who climbed fences to photograph and research Pacheco Pass. “You can imagine how happy I was when this incredible area became a state park and I could visit legally.” Named for 19th century ranch owner Down Francisco Perez Pacheco, the fertile Pacheco Pass was the home of the Ausaymus Indians for centuries. Living peacefully off the land, these Indians used a natural artesian spring they names “Bright Bubbling” as a year-round source of fresh water. This spring and its location would prove to be important in the years to come. A path was carved into the area by Indians traveling in from the coast to trade. With the discovery of gold in 1848, Pacheco Pass was part of the main travel route from coastal California to the mines. As the population increased, the area’s rich soil was cultivated to produce fruit trees and vineyards.
