1964 Map of Hurricane Deck

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

The Hurricane Deck formation and the high peaks of the San Rafael Mountains define this mid-century survey of the California backcountry. Located within the Los Padres National Forest, the landscape is marked by a complex network of springs and canyons, including Montgomery Potrero and the headwaters of the Sisquoc River. Human presence is traced through isolated outposts like the South Fork Guard Station and a series of primitive camps such as Painted Rock Campground and the colorfully named Happy Hunting Ground Campground. The map details a transition from the Sierra Madre Mountains in the north to the sharp ridges of the south, linked by the Sierra Madre Road and historical paths like the Jackson Trail and Rack Trail. Local history is preserved in named landmarks such as Connie Davis Campground and Foresters Leap, reflecting the era's focus on forest management and remote recreation.
