1956 Map of Cajon

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

Cajon Pass serves as the focal point for this mid-century survey of the critical mountain gap connecting the Mojave Desert to the Los Angeles Basin. The landscape is defined by the high-traffic infrastructure of the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe and the Union Pacific Road, which thread through the steep canyons alongside U.S. 66 and U.S. 395. This era shows a network of small settlements and service stops such as Cajon Junction, Alray, and Blue Cut that catered to travelers and railroad operations before the modern interstate era.
