1956 Map of Partington Ridge

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

Los Padres National Forest forms the backdrop for this coastal study, where the steep canyons of the Santa Lucia Range drop directly into the Pacific Ocean. The map documents a landscape defined by seasonal camps and difficult foot travel, connected by the Pine Ridge Trail and Barlow Flat Trail rather than a dense road network. While California State Highway 1 hugs the cliffs, the interior remains primitive, dotted with remote locations such as Sykes Camp and Outlaw Camp. The inclusion of the Sea Otter Game Refuge along the shoreline and the presence of the Anderson Landing (Aban'd) and Seaview Sch (Aban'd) suggest a transition from early coastal industry and pioneer education to a region focused on conservation and backcountry recreation in the mid-20th century.
