2012 Map of Old Man Mountain

About this map

Old Man Mountain stands as a prominent topographical anchor in this high-elevation reach of Ventura County, where the headwaters of several critical drainages begin their descent. The landscape is defined by the complex branching of Matilija Cr and the northern reaches of N Fork Juncal Cr, illustrating the watershed patterns that feed the surrounding valleys. Human activity is sparse and concentrated along established corridors, such as the Matilija Canyon Rd in the southeast corner. Small outposts like Upper Hartman Ranch and the Murietta Campground represent the limited seasonal and agricultural footprint in this interior region. Notable landmarks including Monte Arido and the Three Sisters provide essential navigational reference points for this high-relief terrain, which remains largely characterized by natural features like Old Man Canyon and La Carpa Spring.
