1942 Map of Branch Mtn

USGS Topo · Published 1951

About this map

The La Panza Range and the San Rafael Mountains dominate this 1942 survey of the high country along the San Luis Obispo and Santa Barbara County line. This landscape is defined by remote ranching outposts and high-elevation water sources, where family-named holdings like Joughin Ranch, Scott Ranch, and Pernasse Ranch were established near vital springs. The rugged drainage systems of the Cuyama River and Salinas River provide the primary geographical orientation for the region, carving deep canyons such as Gypsum Canyon and Brown Canyon.
