This site is located near Sea Ranch Trail Marker #260. The Sea Ranch Archives Committee has identified twenty-six historic sites scattered about The Sea Ranch. They have constructed trail markers with information explaining the significance of each place. They were placed as part of The Sea Ranch 50th anniversary being celebrated from Memorial Day 2014 to Memorial Day 2015. The GPS coordinates for this location are 38° 43' 03.9" N 123° 27' 21.1" W.

Hugal's Ravine was named for the first permanent European settler, who built a house on the ridge above and a grist mill with partner Henry Heeler in this vernal area. The Del Mar logging train terminated at the foot of this ravine on the west side of the highway. Cabins for workers were built on the flat area around this marker.
