1948 Map of Lime Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

Nacimiento Reservoir dominates the northern reaches of this terrain, where the Nacimiento River is impounded against the rising slopes of the Santa Lucia Range. This 1970s revision, based on earlier Army Map Service data, documents a landscape of complex drainage systems. Tributaries such as Las Tablas Creek and Dip Creek carve deep into the ridges, converging toward the reservoir. In the southern half of the map, Camp Natoma sits near Town Creek, indicating the area's use for recreation and organized camps during the mid-20th century. The namesake Lime Mountain stands as a prominent peak, anchoring the western topography where steep contouring reflects the difficult approach for early surveyors. Small infrastructural details, such as a solitary Water Tank, provide localized markers for those tracing historical land use or property boundaries in this part of San Luis Obispo County.
