1934 Map of Camp Baldy

USGS Topo · Published 1934

About this map

The San Gabriel Mountains dominate this 1934 survey, centered on the high elevation terrain surrounding Mt San Antonio (Old Baldy). At this time, the area served as a critical recreation and resource hub for Los Angeles County, evidenced by the presence of Camp Baldy and the San Antonio Camp situated along the steep drainages. The landscape is marked by the infrastructure of early 20th-century forest management and mining, including the Old Baldy Lookout and the Bear Canyon R.S.. Resource extraction is represented by the Gold Dollar Mine and Eagle Mine located in the high canyons. The intricate network of Trail and Firebreak annotations reveals the early development of mountain access and fire suppression strategies in the San Gabriels, while features like the Hog Back and Sunset Peak Lookout provide specific navigational points for researchers studying the historical topography of the region.
