1968 Map of San Onofre Bluff

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

The San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station dominates the northern coastline of this 1968 coastal survey, marking a significant era of industrial infrastructure along the Gulf of Santa Catalina. This map captures a narrow corridor of vital transit and military territory, where the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad runs parallel to the San Diego Freeway along the narrow strip between the beach and the rising uplands. Inland, the landscape is defined by the expansive Camp Pendleton Marine Corps Base, emphasizing the region's enduring military role. The topographic detail of San Onofre Bluff provides a clear view of the coastal shelf before it drops into the Pacific Ocean. Traces of earlier rail stops like Agra and roadside service points like the Weigh Station offer specific touchpoints for local historians studying the mid-century development of the San Diego County shoreline.
