About this map

Butano State Park and Big Basin Redwoods State Park dominate this mid-century survey of the California coast, where the Santa Cruz Mountains meet the Pacific Ocean. The landscape is defined by deep canyons carved by Butano Creek and Gazos Creek, leading down to the coastal terraces of The Mesa and the prominent Franklin Point. Human activity in the mid-1950s is evidenced by a network of fire roads and trails, including the Butano Falls Trail and Johansen Road, which service these protected timberlands.
