1943 Map of Santa Cruz Island B

About this map

Stanton Ranch stands as the primary human landmark in this mid-century topographic record, situated at the eastern end of the prominent Central Valley. This interior corridor bisects the island between the Santa Barbara Channel to the north and the Pacific Ocean to the south, defining the island's unique drainage and travel patterns. The shoreline is punctuated by numerous coves and maritime landing points including Diablo Anchorage, Twin Harbors, and Ladys Harbor, which served as critical access points before modern infrastructure. On the southern coast, the map details the terrain leading toward Punta Arena and the offshore Gull Island. The interior geography is characterized by the high peaks of Sierra Blanca and the deep cut of Laguna Canyon, providing a look at the land use and ranching footprint during the early 1940s.
