About this map

Ventana Wilderness dominates this mid-1990s revision of the Santa Lucia Range, revealing a landscape defined by deep canyons and high peaks within the Los Padres National Forest. The map traces a complex network of backcountry infrastructure, from the high elevation Ventana Double Cone Lookout to numerous interior campsites like Pine Valley Campsite and Bear Basin Campsite. The survey captures the intricate drainage systems of the Carmel River and the Big Sur Wild and Scenic River, illustrating the rugged topography that necessitated the designation of these protected areas. The presence of numerous named camps such as Hiding Canyon Campsite and Buckskin Flat Campsite reflects the area's established role for wilderness recreation. Surveyors also documented various trails including the Miller Canyon Trail and Puerto Suello Trail, providing a clear view of the primary transit corridors through this roadless terrain.
