1955 Map of Ano Nuevo

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

Punta del Año Nuevo and its shifting Sand Dunes define this coastal boundary between Santa Cruz and San Mateo counties as it was documented in the mid-1950s. The landscape is dominated by the rugged transition from the Pacific surf to the forested slopes of Big Basin Redwoods State Park. Just offshore, the Lighthouse (Abandoned) on Año Nuevo Island stands as a silent sentinel over Año Nuevo Bay, marking a point where maritime navigation met the treacherous rocky coast.
