1948 Map of Ano Nuevo

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

Pigeon Point and its iconic coastal profile anchor this mid-century survey of the California shoreline, where the maritime landscape of the Pacific Ocean meets the rising slopes of the Santa Cruz Mountains. The terrain is defined by dramatic coastal promontories like Bolsa Point and Franklin Point, while the interior reveals a network of canyons carved by Butano Creek and Gazos Creek. A notable site of historical interest is the Whitehouse Camp (Abandoned), situated near the higher elevations of The Chalks and the Chalks Lookout. This region, split by the boundary of San Mateo and Santa Cruz Counties, shows a transition from agricultural holdings like Coastways Ranch to the wilder, wooded areas around Old Womans Creek. The map also details early 20th-century triangulation stations such as Gusheer 1 1934, providing specific data points for researchers of the era's geodetic work.
