1955 Map of El Cajon Mtn

USGS Topo · Published 1960

About this map

El Capitan Reservoir dominates the eastern landscape of this mid-century survey, fed by the San Diego River and contained by the El Capitan Dam. The surrounding terrain is defined by the steep transition from the Barona Mesa down into the river canyons, where family holdings like the Featherstone Ranch, Grable Ranch, and Poole Ranch suggest a rural ranching economy persisting alongside protected lands. Extensive areas are designated as the Barona Indian Reservation and Capitan Grande Indian Res, illustrating the complex land tenure of the Cleveland National Forest region. An intricate network of fire and maintenance roads, such as the Mykrantz Truck Trail and Gower Truck Trail, provides access to high points like El Cajon Mtn and San Vicente Mtn, marking a landscape managed for both water resources and forestry.
