1942 Map of Eagle Rest Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1960

About this map

San Emigdio Ranch sits at the base of the steep mountain front where the San Joaquin Valley meets the high ridges of the Transverse Ranges. Captured during the early 1940s, this landscape is defined by the dramatic ascent from the valley floor into the southern reaches of the Los Padres National Forest. The map documents a network of seasonal drainages, including San Emigdio Creek and Pleitito Creek, which have carved deep paths through the San Emidio mountains. High-altitude landmarks like Brush Mountain and Eagle Rest Peak dominate the southern portion of the sheet, with Blue Ridge marking the southwestern boundary. This era shows the land primarily utilized for large-scale ranching and forest management, with Williams Canyon and Devils Kitchen Creek providing access into the higher elevations.
