1947 Map of Lucia

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

The Santa Lucia Range rises sharply from the Pacific Ocean in this mid-century topographic record of the Big Sur coast. Family names mark the coastline and canyons, with sites like Andersen, Dolan, and Waters appearing alongside the small coastal settlement of Lucia. The terrain is characterized by steep ridges like Logwood Ridge and deep drainage basins for the North Fork Sur River and South Fork Sur River. Inland, the Hunter Liggett Military Reservation occupies the southeastern corner of the sheet, contrasting with the remote recreational and school sites such as Seaview School and the Tassajara Hot Springs in the northeast. The presence of coastal landings like Andersen Landing and Rockland Landing indicates the historical maritime access points necessary for this isolated stretch of Monterey County before modern highway development fully transformed the region.
