About this map

Gaviota and its dramatic coastal interface are the focus of this mid-century topographic record, where the Santa Ynez Mountains meet the Santa Barbara Channel. The coastal strip is defined by a series of steep canyons or cañadas, such as Cañada del Cementerio and Cañada del Refugio, which carry seasonal runoff from the Los Padres National Forest down to the Pacific. Transportation follows the narrow terrace between the cliffs and the sea, with the Southern Pacific railroad and Highway 101 threading through the landscape.
