1964 Map of Foxen Canyon

About this map

Sisquoc River waters carve a broad valley through the northern reaches of this map, setting the stage for a landscape dominated by historic California land grants and early ranching estates. The agricultural legacy is preserved in named holdings like Sisquoc Ranch, Rancho Tinaquaic, and Rancho San Juan, which reflect the transition from colonial Mexican ranchos to modern production. Along the arterial Foxen Canyon Road, the map documents significant local landmarks including the Fremont-Foxen Monument and the Foxen Adobe (Site), markers of the area's mid-19th-century history. To the southwest, the industrial footprint of the Gato Ridge Oil Field contrasts with the surrounding Solomon Hills, while the San Rafael Mountains rise in the east, intersected by numerous canyons like Asphaltum Creek and Whoop Canyon.
