1967 Map of Huasna Peak

About this map

Huasna Valley and the surrounding coastal range highlands are depicted here during a period of water management and land preservation in the late 1960s. The northern reaches of Twitchell Reservoir dominate the low-lying drainage basins where the Huasna River, Alamo Creek, and Cuyama River converge. The terrain is marked by established cattle operations such as Porter Ranch, Oakley Ranch, and Swiekert Ranch, illustrating the region's long-standing ranching tradition. Much of the eastern and northern landscape falls within the Los Padres National Forest, where a network of primitive tracks leads to isolated landmarks like the Deer Trail Mine. Notable summits including Huasna Peak, Stanley Mtn, and Boar Peak define the local topography, while features like Vaquero Flat and Tunnel Flat indicate the varied plateaus used for grazing and transit between the rugged canyons.
