San Clemente Island projects into the Pacific Ocean at its southernmost tip, dominated by the prominent coastal markers of Pyramid Head and Sun Point. This 2015 topographic record of the Los Angeles County territory shows the island's elevation rising steeply from the water's edge, with the rocky protrusion of Balanced Rock situated just offshore near the southern terminus. The map provides a focused view of the island's coastal shelf and the surrounding maritime boundary within the Southern California Bight, highlighting the geographic isolation and stark terrain of this offshore landmass. While much of the quadrangle is defined by open water, the precise mapping of the southern headlands illustrates the critical navigational landmarks that define the edge of the island.
