Lopez, Santa Rosa Island

Lopez, Santa Rosa Island, survey station established in 1934 by Robert W. Knox. It was located “on the long ridge that runs eastward to station Mid from the high peak about 1 mile north of the anchorage at Johnson’s Lee at the head of a deep canyon leading directly down to the shore and on the hill where the ridge first slopes abruptly downward. This ridge forms the south wall of the Hoya Vieja Cañada. The best way to reach the station is to make a boat landing on South Point in front of the first lighthouse service shack and make east along the shore to the first canyon east of a large shell mound, thence up the ridge to the left to the station.” The station was marked with a standard disk. This triangulation station appears on the Santa Rosa Island South topographic map.
