2018 Map of Santa Margarita Lake

About this map

The settlement of Pozo sits at the eastern edge of this territory, where the Salinas River carves through the interior of Los Padres National Forest. This 2018 survey reveals a landscape of high-elevation flats and canyons, including Vaca Flat and Magetti Flats, linked by old backcountry routes like the Blinn Ranch Trail. The area is defined by its water sources, with several named springs such as Salsipuedes Spring Number One, Salsipuedes Spring Number Two, and McNeil Spring providing critical points of interest for those studying the drainage patterns of Salsipuedes Creek.
