1959 Map of Condor Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

The Big Tujunga Reservoir and its surrounding canyon systems dominate this 1959 survey of the San Gabriel Mountains. The map highlights the engineering of the Big Tujunga Dam Spillway Elev 2290 and the vital watershed management near Big Tujunga Station. Social history is well-represented through seasonal and recreational outposts, including the Burbank YMCA Camp, the Clean Creek School Camp, and several Angeles National Forest facilities such as Switzer Station and Deer Spring Campground. Traces of earlier mountain life are visible at Ybarra Ranch and the small settlement of Windsor, while the Lodestone Mine near Mill Creek points to the area's mineral prospects. The northern reaches include Mt. Gleason and Condor Peak, overlooking a network of firebreaks and trails used for forest protection.
