1943 Map of Wheeler Springs

USGS Topo · Published 1960

About this map

Los Padres National Forest dominates this mid-century landscape, characterized by the winding path of Sespe Creek as it carves through Sespe Gorge. The survey, based on 1942 aerial photography, captures the interior Ventura County backcountry during World War II, showing a network of remote outposts and ranching operations. Human presence is concentrated around water and transit routes, with landmarks like Fell Ranch and Hartman Ranch providing rare points of private habitation within the federal forest lands.
