1996 Map of San Vicente Reservoir

About this map

San Vicente Reservoir dominates the eastern half of this landscape, its irregular shoreline reaching into the deep drainages of Kimball Valley and San Vicente Creek. The 1996 planimetry shows a region defined by its varied land use, where the residential pockets of Eucalyptus Hills and Moreno sit south of the protected wildlands of the Sycamore Canyon Open Space Preserve. To the west, the Marine Corps Air Station Miramar Sycamore Canyon Annex indicates the area's strategic importance, while the interior is dotted with historical ranching names like Wildwood Ranch and Goodan Ranch. Prominent peaks like Iron Mtn and Goat Pk rise above the network of primitive trails and fire breaks, such as the Foster Truck Trail, which navigate the steep terrain between the valleys and the reservoir's Resort Area.
