The coastal communities of Santa Cruz County are mapped in detail, showing a densely settled landscape where the Santa Cruz Mountains meet the Pacific Ocean. Residential development and local industry define the area, from the Bargetto Winery in Soquel to the waterfront activity of Capitola. A string of coastal lagoons—Schwan Lagoon, Bonita Lagoon, Corcoran Lagoon, and Moran Lake—illustrate the unique hydrology of the Monterey Bay shoreline. Inland, the map documents numerous gulches and creeks, such as Arana Gulch and Soquel Creek, which have shaped the local topography and street patterns.
