1949 Map of Cape San Martin

USGS Topo · Published 1953

About this map

Hunter Liggett Military Reservation dominates this 1949 coastal landscape, where the steep slopes of the Santa Lucia Range drop sharply into the Pacific Ocean. This survey captures the sparse settlement patterns of the Monterey coast just after the war, centered on small outposts like Gorda and Plaskett. The dominance of federal land is evident, with the Los Padres National Forest and military boundaries dictating the lack of development along the rugged shoreline.
