1995 Map of Santa Margarita Lake

USGS Topo · Published 2000

About this map

Santa Margarita Lake dominates the central landscape of this mid-1990s survey, its winding shoreline and inlets like Vaca Flat reaching into the surrounding coastal hills. The map captures a transition between the old land grants, notably the Santa Margarita Grant, and the vast protected lands of the Los Padres National Forest. Resource extraction history is visible in the southwestern quadrant, where the Rinconada Mine and Mercury Belle Mines sit near numerous unnamed prospects. Along the Salinas River, the small settlement of Pozo and the junction at Pippin Corner serve as navigation points for those traveling Pozo Road. To the south, the topography rises sharply toward the Garcia Wilderness and Santa Lucia Wilderness, marked by the high-elevation Hi Mountain Lookout.
