About this map

Santa Barbara National Forest covers this dramatic stretch of the Monterey coastline as it appeared in the early 1920s. The landscape is defined by steep ridges like Logwood Ridge and deep canyons such as Devils Canyon, where early settlements and family homesteads cling to the slopes. Local life at this time centered around isolated outposts like Lucia P.O. and family-named landmarks including Boronda's, Avila's, and Harlan's. The map captures a period when coastal access was often dictated by the sea, evidenced by Anderson Landing and Rockland Landing. Inland, the terrain gives way to notable features like Tassajara Hot Springs and Slates Hot Springs, while remote educational sites like Redwood School served the area's scattered residents. This survey provides a record of the early infrastructure and pioneer genealogy of the Big Sur region before the arrival of modern highway systems.
