1958 Map of Black Mtn

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

Pyramid Lake dominates the southern landscape of this mid-century survey, its fingers reaching into canyons such as Liebre Gulch and Posey Canyon. The transition from rural ranching to modern infrastructure is evident through the path of the California Aqueduct and the Golden State Highway, which parallel Gorman Creek through the eastern valley. Historical ranching footprints remain visible at Lane Ranch, Kinsey Ranch, and the Bailey Homestead, scattered among the high terrain of Hungry Valley. To the west, the rugged wilderness of the Los Padres National Forest is accessible through landmarks like the Buck Cr Guard Sta and Hardluck Campground. This document reflects a critical era of water management and transportation expansion in the mountainous region north of Los Angeles, where the Hungry Valley Road and various trails weave through the drainage of Piru Creek.
