About this map

Figueroa Mtn and the surrounding San Rafael Mountains dominate this high-elevation territory within the Los Padres National Forest. The landscape is a network of deep drainages and ridges, featuring prominent landmarks like Ranger Peak and the curious basalt outcropping at Goat Rock. Water sources are critical in this terrain, marked by scattered locations such as Soldiers Home Spring, Chicken Springs, and the seasonal flow of Manzana Cr.

Human activity is centered on backcountry access and forest management, visible through the placement of Junction Camp and the winding route of Figueroa Mountain Rd. The map documents numerous named canyons that have historically supported grazing or early homesteading efforts, including Birabent Canyon and Marre Canyon. This survey captures the transition from the wooded heights of Sawmill Basin to the lower reaches of Happy Canyon as they appeared in 2015.
