About this map

Pacific Missile Facility Point Arguello occupies the northern coastal terrace of this Santa Barbara County landscape, reflecting the military's strategic footprint along the Pacific Ocean during the Cold War. The shoreline is defined by steep ridges and canyons, including Tranquillon Ridge and La Honda Canyon, which drop sharply toward the sea. Inland of Point Arguello and Point Pedernales, the Southern Pacific railroad follows the contours of the coast, serving small settlements like Arguello and Arlight.
