About this map

San Vicente Reservoir dominates this central San Diego County landscape, where the water's edge meets the steep canyons of the Peninsular Ranges. The map captures the complex water infrastructure of the region, featuring the San Diego Aqueduct as it traverses the terrain toward the reservoir. To the south, the suburban expansion of Santee and Eucalyptus Hills is clearly visible, showing a network of residential roads like Eucalyptus Hills Dr and Rocoso Rd pushing into the foothills.

Smaller residential pockets and rural settlements such as Fernbrook, Boulder Oaks, and Moreno are situated along the winding paths of San Vicente Cr and the Highway 67 corridor. The land is defined by prominent topographical markers like Iron Mtn and Goat Peak, which separate deep drainages such as Sycamore Canyon and Slaughterhouse Canyon. This survey illustrates the modern balance between preserved open space, vital water storage, and the growing communities of the East County.
