1964 Map of Salisbury Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

The Cuyama River valley and its surrounding high-country plateaus are documented here during a period of significant petroleum and agricultural development. The industrial footprint of the Cuyama Oil Field is visible near New Cuyama, a town characterized by its Cuyama Valley High Sch, Sewage Disposal plant, and Ranger Station. In the high mountain country to the south, the landscape is defined by vast grazing meadows known as potreros, including Montgomery Potrero and Salisbury Potrero, which were essential to the region's ranching heritage. Large landholdings like the Cuyama Ranch and the lands of the Heirs of Cesario Lataillade occupy the valley floor. The map also captures the early preservation efforts of the Sisquoc Condor Sanctuary along the southern edge of the Sierra Madre mountains.
