1949 Map of Cone Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Santa Lucia Range peaks dominate this mid-century survey of the California coast's interior, where the terrain is defined by deep canyons and isolated outposts. The prominent Cone Peak and its associated Lookout Tower overlook a landscape transitioning from the Los Padres National Forest into the Hunter Liggett Military Reservation to the southeast. Settled pockets like The Indians and Avila Ranch sit along the winding drainage of the North Fork San Antonio River, while the northern portion of the map is marked by the Arroyo Seco and the Santa Lucia Memorial Park. The map documents a primitive transportation and communication network, illustrated by a prominent telephone line and remote locations such as Vicente Camp. Water sources are critical landmarks here, with named springs like Redwood Spring and Carrots Spring providing vital points of reference in the arid high country above the Nacimiento River.
