1965 Map of Morro Bay North

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

Whale Rock Reservoir dominates the western foothills in this mid-century survey of the California coast, where steep canyons drain toward the Pacific Ocean. The landscape transitions from the protected timber of the Los Padres National Forest and the Asuncion grant down to the developing coastal strip along the Cabrillo Highway. Local education and infrastructure are concentrated near the shore, evidenced by Del Mar Sch and a local Trailer Park, while the interior remains defined by large ranch boundaries like Morro y Cayucos and San Bernardo (Cane). This era of the 1960s shows a complex network of resource management, including multiple pipelines and water features like Cottontail Creek and Toro Creek that carve through the peaks of the Santa Lucia Range, including Rusty Peak and Dark Range Peak.
