Camp and Depot
Vallecito
by Robert B. Roberts
A stage station first
occupied by Army troops in 1850, it eventually became an important
supply center, which lasted until 1853, although it had been
officially abandoned as a post. Its site, including the restored
stage station, is the present Vallecito County Park, some 19
miles south of Scissors Crossing.
