1932 Map of Arroyo Sequit

About this map

Santa Monica Mountains dominate this coastal landscape, where the steep canyons of Malibu meet the Pacific. Surveyed in 1929, the map reveals a rugged terrain largely defined by its natural drainage systems, including Arroyo Sequit and the East Fork that carve through the highlands. A single State Highway skirts the coastline, providing the primary connection between Ventura and Los Angeles Counties at a time when this stretch of shore remained sparsely developed.
