About this map

Old Fort Tejon stands as a landmark of nineteenth-century military and frontier history, marking the northern approach to the critical mountain crossing at Tejon Pass. This 2012 survey documents the residential and agricultural development concentrated in the high valleys, particularly in Frazier Park and Lake of the Woods. These mountain communities are connected by a network of winding roads like Frazier Mountain Park RD and Tecuya Mtn RD, which navigate the steep elevations of Tecuya Mountain and Frazier Mountain.

Evidence of the area's ranching heritage remains visible through named properties such as Lebec Oaks Ranch, Mesa Valley Farm, and Maxey Ranch. The geography is defined by narrow corridors and basins, including Castac Valley and Cold Springs Canyon, where seasonal drainages like Grapevine Cr and Tecuya Cr have carved the landscape. The inclusion of Arrastra Flat suggests a connection to early mining methods, providing a topographical look at the transition from historic land uses to modern rural mountain living.
