1960 Map of Cuyamaca Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

Cuyamaca Peak and the high ridges of the Cleveland National Forest dominate this 1960s landscape, where mountain cattle ranching and early recreation intersect. The northern portion is anchored by Cuyamaca Reservoir and the Stonewall Mine, while the southern half shows the development of mountain communities along the highway corridor. Small settlements and specialized camps, such as Descanso, Pine Valley, and the Viejas Honor Camp, are interspersed between the rugged watersheds of the San Diego River and the Sweetwater River. The map meticulously documents the boundaries of the Capitan Grande Indian Reservation and Viejas Indian Reservation, alongside various family-named holdings like Burney Ranch and Lyster Ranch. This survey captures the region as it transitioned from a remote mining and ranching district into a hub for state park recreation and rural residential pockets.
