1991 Map of Ano Nuevo

USGS Topo · Published 1995

About this map

The dramatic coastal boundary of Santa Cruz and San Mateo counties defines this 1991 revision, where the Santa Cruz Mountains meet the Pacific. The landscape is dominated by protected lands, including the massive Big Basin Redwoods State Park and the ecologically significant Theodore J. Hoover Natural Preserve. At the northwestern edge, Punta del Año Nuevo and Point Año Nuevo extend into the sea, while Año Nuevo Island sits just offshore as part of the surrounding Año Nuevo State Reserve. Narrow drainages like Waddell Creek and Scott Creek cut through the uplifted terrain toward Año Nuevo Bay. This map traces a transition from dense redwood forests to coastal bluffs, showing minimal development aside from the winding Last Chance Road and a solitary Cemetery tucked near the ridges above Arroyo de las Trancas.
