Chapter revises Los Padres National Forest map
by Steve Chambers
Continuing in our efforts to provide accurate and timely trail
information to local wilderness users, the Ventana Chapter has revised
our Monterey District, Los Padres National Forest map. This map,
bundled with our famous Trail Guide to Los Padres National Forest,
is also sold separately.
At press time it was being printed and will be available in early
December. The revised map show the recently-expanded Ventana and
Silver Peak Wilderness boundary changes. In addition, we've corrected
typos, designated an existing camp, eliminated a camp on private
land, and noted a few historic trails no longer maintained (much
less findable).
Most of these maps will be folded to fit with our trail guide,
but unfolded copies (for wall mounting) will be available at the
Sierra Club bookstore in Carmel. Unbelievably, we've kept the map
price at a reasonable $4.95. They make great holiday presents. Buy
yours today.
Many thanks to Boon Hughey of the Ventana Wilderness Alliance,
Chapter Chair, Rita Dalessio, Joyce Stevens, Mary Gale and Steve
Chambers for their work on these revisions.
