1959 Map of Taylor Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 1989

About this map

Cuyama Valley defines this arid landscape at the border of San Luis Obispo and Santa Barbara counties. The Cuyama River winds through the basin, flanked by the Caliente Range to the north and the Sierra Madre Mts within the Los Padres National Forest to the south. This 1959 survey, photorevised in 1988, preserves the names of early land grants and family holdings, including lands of Maria Antonia De La Guerra Y Lataillade and the Heirs of Cesario Lataillade. Remote outposts like Spanish Ranch and Green Valley Ranch No 2 are the primary signs of habitation, while the presence of scattered oil wells and multiple spring sites like Taylor Spring and Pearson Spring point to the critical role of water and mineral resources in this high-desert environment.
