1959 Map of Cameron Corners

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Cleveland National Forest dominates this landscape in southern San Diego County, where the high terrain of the Laguna Mts transitions into the Campo Valley. The map documents a sparsely populated but critical transportation corridor during the late 1950s, defined by the winding path of La Posta Creek and the tracks of the San Diego and Arizona Eastern railroad. Small outposts and seasonal ranches like Boulder Oaks, Miller Ranch, and La Posta Ranch are scattered throughout, alongside civil infrastructure including the Cameron Guard Sta and a Heliport. Tribal lands occupy significant portions of the area, notably the La Posta Indian Reservation and the Campo Indian Reservation. The presence of several Gravel Pits and the Clover Flat Pit suggest the local importance of resource extraction within this mountain landscape, while a small Cem near Cameron Corners provides a focal point for genealogical interest.
