2015 Map of Santa Cruz Island D

About this map

Channel Islands National Park occupies the landmass of this 2015 survey, documenting the specialized topography of one of California's offshore territories within Santa Barbara County. The terrain is defined by steep ridges and drainages, most notably Hungryman Gulch on the eastern side of the island. Unlike many coastal maps, this sheet depicts a landscape largely devoid of modern development, focusing instead on the natural elevation and hydrological patterns of the Channel Islands. The surrounding Pacific Ocean is marked by a maritime boundary line, emphasizing the protected status of these waters. For those studying the geography of the California archipelago, this map provides a detailed record of the island's interior contours and coastal inlets as they appeared in the early 21st century.
