1949 Map of Alder Peak

About this map

The Hunter Liggett Military Reservation dominates the central terrain of this quadrangle, illustrating the mid-century intersection of military training grounds and public land management. This transition is marked by the Forest Boundary where the reservation meets the rugged slopes of the Los Padres National Forest. The landscape is defined by the high peaks of the Santa Lucia Range, including the prominent Alder Peak, which overlooks a network of seasonal drainages such as Slickrock Creek and the North Fork of Los Burros Creek.
