1937 Map of Bouquet Reservoir

About this map

Bouquet Reservoir dominates the high canyons of the Angeles National Forest in this 1930s depiction of the Sierra Pelona mountains. The landscape is defined by its deep drainage systems, including Bouquet Canyon and Mint Canyon, which served as vital corridors for early infrastructure like the Mint Canyon Highway. High-altitude settlement is sparse but present, marked by family-held lands such as Biddison Ranch and Rancho Madera, alongside small clusters at Martindale and White Heather.
