1959 Map of Figueroa Mtn

USGS Topo · Published 1989

About this map

Figueroa Mtn VABM 4528 Lookout stands as a central sentinel over this portion of the San Rafael Mountains within the Los Padres National Forest. The landscape is a network of deep drainages including Catway Canyon, Lion Canyon, and Happy Canyon, where early ranching and mining efforts left their mark. Notable ranching sites like Marre Ranch and the expansive College Ranch occupy the lower elevations, while specialized mountain outposts like Cachuma Saddle Guard Sta BM 3104 served forest management. Resource extraction is evidenced by the Peacock Mine and Redrock Mine, alongside numerous prospect pits scattered across the ridges. The distribution of remote camps such as De la Guerra Camp and Junction Camp reflects a mid-century era of wilderness recreation and fire management accessed by the winding Figueroa Mountain Road.
