About this map

Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton dominates the southern landscape of this California quadrangle, showing the extensive network of military infrastructure in place by the late 1960s. The map details numerous Firing Ranges and an Observation Tower situated among the drainage of San Onofre Canyon. Further north, the terrain transitions into the protected acreage of the Cleveland National Forest, where the Santa Margarita Mountains rise toward Margarita Peak. This intersection of military training grounds and national forest land is tied together by rugged transportation routes like Basilone Road and various truck trails. For researchers, the map provides precise locations for remote water sources such as Case Spring, White Oak Springs, and Mad Springs, alongside landmarks like the Miller Mtn summit and the Gaging Station located along the canyon floors.
