1959 Map of San Rafael Mtn

USGS Topo · Published 1989

About this map

San Rafael Mtn and McKinley Mtn anchor this high-elevation backcountry terrain within the Los Padres National Forest. The landscape is defined by the sharp drainage systems of Manzana Creek and the South Fork Sisquoc River, where remote campsites like Manzana Narrows Camp and Mission Pine Camp provided essential refuge for wilderness travelers. This edition includes purple photorevisions from 1988, showing the expanded San Rafael Wilderness boundary. A network of primitive routes, including the Santa Cruz (Pack) Trail and various unnamed jeep trails, connects the mountain peaks to valley points such as the Santa Cruz Guard Station and Doty Cabin. The presence of many springs, including Grand Spring and Live Oak Spring, highlights the critical water sources that dictated movement through this interior range during the mid-20th century.
