1949 Map of Junipero Serra Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1953

About this map

Los Padres National Forest contains the high elevations of the Santa Lucia Range in this late 1940s survey. The landscape is defined by the deep drainage of the Arroyo Seco and its tributaries, including South Fork and Santa Lucia Creek. Notable for fire suppression and communication infrastructure, the map identifies the Junipero Serra Peak Lookout Tower at the highest point, alongside the Pinyon Peak Lookout Tower to the east. A lone Airfield sits in a narrow clearing along the upper canyon, while a telephone line and the Indians Road provide the primary links through this terrain. Along the southern reaches, the Escondido Camp Ground marks an early site for recreation and forest management near Bear Mountain.
