1932 Map of Arroyo Sequit

About this map

The Santa Monica Mountains meet the rugged coastline in this early 1930s topographical study of the Malibu region. The survey documents the area just as the modern coastal transport network was taking shape, dominated by the single line of the State Highway tracing the shoreline. Deep canyons and watercourses like Arroyo Sequit Creek, Willow Creek, and Nicholas Canyon cut through the elevation, providing a clear view of the natural drainage patterns into the Pacific Ocean before mid-century development. The boundary between Ventura Co and Los Angeles Co is clearly delineated across the high ridges, offering researchers a precise look at the jurisdictional and topographical layout of this coastal frontier during the Great Depression.
