About this map

The Sierra Madre Mts define the northern reaches of this territory, where remote drainage systems like La Brea Creek and Salsipuedes Creek carve deep through the landscape. This 1995 revision by the USDA Forest Service documents the protected expanses of the Los Padres National Forest and the San Rafael Wilderness, characterized by a complex network of canyons such as Script Canyon and Stag Canyon. A notable point of human activity is the White Elephant Mine, situated east of the Kerry Canyon Campsite.

The landscape is marked by essential water sources for backcountry travelers, including Horseshoe Spring and various unnamed springs. Landmarks like Manzanita Mountain and Buckhorn Ridge serve as primary navigational points for the 4wd tracks and trails that navigate the Wilderness Boundary. Local geography is further detailed by specific drainages such as South Fork Chchudas Creek and the numerous numbered canyons like Canyon No 1.
