1956 Map of Ventana Cones

About this map

Los Padres National Forest contains a complex network of trails and primitive camps as recorded in the mid-1950s. The landscape is defined by the headwaters of the Carmel River and Big Sur River, with numerous tributaries such as Danish Creek and Rattlesnake Creek carving through the high ridges. Remote outposts like Hiding Canyon Camp and Sulphur Springs Camp provided shelter for those navigating the Carmel River Trail and Ventana Trail. Prominent peaks, including Ventana Double Cone and Uncle Sam Mtn, served as critical surveying points and landmarks for forest travel.
