1964 Map of Tepusquet Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Tepusquet Canyon and its surrounding drainages define this rugged Santa Barbara County landscape as it appeared during the mid-1960s. The map reveals a remote area of the Los Padres National Forest characterized by a network of jeep trails and scattered water sources such as Cigarette Spring and Peach Tree Spring. Notable for local historians and genealogists is the presence of the Ontiveros Cem and the settlement at Ruiz, complete with a nearby Grave, indicating early family footholds in the canyon bottoms. Resource extraction and forest management are evident through labels for Oil Wells, a Drill Hole, and a Guard Station near Barrel Springs. The terrain is steeply etched by features like Rattlesnake Canyon and Buckhorn Ridge, while recreational use is represented by the Colson Canyon Campgrounds and Alejandro Campground.
