Santa Ynez Valley is the focal point of this 2021 study, where the developed grids of Solvang and Santa Ynez meet the transition to the steep southern slopes of the Santa Ynez Mountains. The Santa Ynez River carves through the center of the sheet, flanked by numerous small airfields including Santa Ynez Airport and Crawford Airport, reflecting the region's aviation and equestrian character. South of the river, the land rises sharply into the Los Padres National Forest, a wilderness of deep drainage canyons like Cañada Del Refugio and Las Flores Canyon. Historic transit routes are evident in Refugio Pass, which provides a topographical break in the ridge line near Bald Mtn. Local road names like Armour Ranch Rd and Count Fleet St underscore the deep agricultural and thoroughbred horse racing heritage that defines this corner of Santa Barbara County.
