1979 Map of Oceano

About this map

Coastal dunes and agricultural valleys characterize this late-1970s landscape, where the Southern Pacific railroad corridor links the developing communities of Grover City and Oceano. The map reveals a complex hydrographic system between the shoreline and the Nipomo Mesa, featuring a string of smaller water bodies such as Oso Flaco Lake, Celery Lake, and Black Lake. These lakes are caught in the shifting sands of the extensive Sand Dunes that dominate the western edge of the quadrangle.
