2018 Map of Santa Margarita

About this map

The town of Santa Margarita serves as the focal point for this survey of the Central Coast interior, situated where the Salinas River meets the rugged transitions of Granite Ridge. The landscape is defined by its drainage systems, including the complex headwaters of the East Branch Huerhuero Creek and Middle Br Huerhuero Cr. A significant modern engineering feature, the Governor Edmund G Brown Coastal Br California Aqueduct, cuts across the terrain near the Santa Margarita Cem, illustrating the massive infrastructure required to move water through this region.
